Turning a Train of Thought Upside Down: An Anthology of Women's Poetry

by Andrena Zawinski (Editor)

Overview

Poetry. TURNING A TRAIN OF THOUGHT UPSIDE DOWN is an anthology of poems by 41 San Francisco Bay Area women poets.

"Forty-one women are unarmed but dangerous. They can change your life with clarity, truth and power in equal measure. These poets, from the literary culture of San Francisco, make up an album of rich fabrics combining the ordinary and the magnificent. Intimate details and heightened temperaments give us more reason to care about poetry."—Grace Cavalieri
