Women in Praise of the Sacred by Jane Hirshfield
"Hirshfield's current collection brings together . . . an astonishing array of women writers from the 22nd century BC poet Enheduanna to Nelly Sachs and Anna Akhmatova."-- Library Journal
"Destined to become a classic. . . . An anthology of women's spirituality on this scale has never been attempted before and I cannot imagine it being better done." -- Andrew Harvey
The Beauty, Come, Thief, After, and Given Sugar, Given Salt are among Jane Hirschfield's eight collections of poetry. She is the author of two significant collections of articles, Nine Gates: Accessing the Mind of Poetry and Ten Windows: How Great Poems Change the World, and has edited and cotranslated four books showcasing the work of former poets. Her books have been nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award and the T. S. Eliot Prize in England.
