In this extraordinary full-length collection, Alice Miller explores history, myth, scene, place, music and relationship in poems that marry charmed, syncopated rhythmic language and intricate, urgent metaphor. Human limits are tested, depths plumbed and boundaries traced - but Millers aural swoops and metaphoric stretching are grounded always by charged, concrete details.

Psychohistorical analyses of such tyrants as Hitler, Stalin and Ceausescu have shown the links between the horrors of their childhoods and that which they inflict on the world. In this text, Miller pleads for awareness of society's role in child abuse and for recognition of the victim.
