The Knot by Alice Jones

The Knot is an extraordinary combination of lyricism, mythmaking, and an informed use of the language of medicine. We have had William Carlos Williams, the doctor-poet--now here is a woman, skilled at the same kind(s) of work, and with her own forceful voice. --Alicia Ostriker
