Description - Raising the Tents by Frances Payne Adler

Poetry. RAISING THE TENTS tracks a woman's retrieval of her voice. In these poems we join a woman on her journey to find meaning and wholeness. Ms. Adler's personal mythology evolves from a belief in the possibility for change and a Jewish heritage emphasizing ancestry. She explores the silencing of women and reveals the empowering effects of finding and claiming our voices. In remembering pogroms and the Holocaust, and her childhood in an alcoholic home, she builds connections between the personal and political, bearing witness "against a world malnourished by its insistence on dominance as a way of life."
