Samenvatting:

Julia Stockton, who died in 2014, only published a few poems during her lifetime. Now, for the first time, we can read the poems this brilliant poet kept secret from the world. From the 360 entries found in her poetry notebooks (many of them duplicates or unfinished compositions) less than 40 finished poems are represented here. Sometimes hearth-warm, sometimes stone-cold, often erudite, just as often blue-collar, these are the dismissive, yearning, pessimistic, conflicted, joyful and transcendent poems that are as complicated as she was.
