Product Description
by Lucy Adkins (Author)
Two-Toned Dress shows us good times, times of abundance, but does not shy away from showing the lonely times. Dig in This well-crafted collection expertly deals with relationships, and does so with beautiful honesty. This poet helps us to remember our own times of being in love and leads us toward a compassionate view of others, including our parents, who have also known what it is to negotiate what life throws at us.
