A collection of poetry from "Wanting A Country for This Weather" (2003) along with earlier and later writings. More detailed description of the book: “When I first read Robin’s poetry, years ago, a quickening occurred deep within me; a feeling, an imprint arising from the wholeness in this woman’s work and a voice so rare I wanted to be near her flame. With her latest collection of poetry my old wish has been granted. Robin’s flame of Becoming burns throughout these pages …In this collection, I found revelations born out of facing the impossible realities in life, revelation emerging from within the act of creation, an arc of surprise in each work, and a voice born from the dark mystery of life itself. . . A slow holding of these poems creates, drop by drop, access to a deep drink of living water, resulting in subtle dynamic changes in how we embrace and see our own lives, our world, and the psyche at work within us.” — from the Preface, by Monika Wikman, p. 7
