Black Sheila (391 results)

Paperback. Condition: Good. What is Wen Kroy? It is New York spelled backwards, and when people come to the city in their youth, how can it be anything but? Through these poems, we come to love and understand the hardships of being young and the difficulty of building a self. Sheila Black uses the city as a character in the discovery of a self through love, passion, fear, and, in the end, empathy. -Jennifer Bartlett Some poets blindfold themselves to better see in the dark, others bravely face the day.

How I love the rage and tenderness in this voice. Indeed, nothing but simple aria and/ the glass breaks. -Joni Wallace This is a fantastic book. Sheila Black is a master of metaphor.
