Fat Sheep Everyone Wants

Poetry. "Bern Mulvey's THE FAT SHEEP EVERYONE WANTS is a study in intimacy--an intimacy conspiring across cultures, languages, families and landscapes despite histories of war, racism and difference. In our time of global connections, Mulvey has created a poetry of negotiation, of tender but insistent communication. This is a poetry of witness without the distance of the spectator. Complicated because implicated, the voice in these poems speaks with profound precision because where it stands just happens to be where we are standing"--Claudia Rankine.
