\nIf I could fly backward\, I would.
\nTo the safety of branches\, to the time\n
when my heart still raced for you\,
\ntwelve hundred beats a minute.
\nIn poetry that is at once bold and lyrical\, affecting and devastatingly frank\, Miranda Cowley Heller takes us through childhood\, marriage\, motherhood\, and beyond. Suffused with the natural world and th e landscape of Cape Cod\, where many of the poems are set\, \;What the Deep Water Knows \;contemplates love in all the seasons.
\nRegi ster now to celebrate National Poetry Month with this graceful new poetry collection. \;
