Her Belly Made of Wings

At the heart of these beautiful poems—about faith, forebears, trauma, and illness, personal and societal—are resilience and survival: the work of making it through, whatever comes, maybe even with a measure of grace. Amy Steingart’s poems are the work of a tough soul, and they toughen us up a bit, too. -Clifford Thompson, author of "What It Is: Race, Family and One Thinking Black Man's Blues"
