of the first:

A rich tapestry of voices: through glimpses of women who experience love and loss, who suffer and survive, Wright enriches our own lives with this beautiful book. 
                               
~Angela Patten, author of In Praise of Usefulness, Reliquaries

and of her poetry:

These poems address the complexity of a woman's desire to live a whole life, and the choices that must be made... They celebrate the ever present dangers of loving and the glorious thing it is to live.                                                                                   ~Diane Swan, author of Jewelweed and The Other Wish

 

The grandmother of our alums Zoe & Zelie Wright Neal, to (all of) whom we are grateful.
