Poetry. Rabb has an ability to cast a cold and objective eye at the natural world, letting the particulars rise through language that lightens the spirit, amazingly, with its breathless and seemingly effortless ability to capture in words the sense of the human spirit in flight. "This is a wise and michaievous book. Dropping in at The Mothers of Twins Club, following retirees around Pompeii, standing in the stillness of Chartres, Margaret Rabb offers the companionship of a sharp, generous fellow traveler. She is a master of incantation, stories, joes, mediation --and always, always the language, which she weaves in astonishing ways, almost as if it were light" --Jeanne Murray Walker.
