"It's a gift to the world, not quite a novel, not quite a collection of short stories....A precious moment in the channels of contemporary literature...very simply, a book of the heart."--San Francisco Chronicle¶"Her stories are carefully crafted magic....They joyously lull and illuminate."--Chicago Tribune

Seven Hands, Seven Hearts includes the entirety of Elizabeth Woody's highly acclaimed first book of poems, Hand into Stone - winner of the American Book Award - as well as new poems, stories, and essays. The work is united by common themes: a rootedness in the Northwest landscape, the histories of her ancestors, and the ongoing struggle to define what it means to be a tribal member, an American, and a woman at the end of the twentieth century.

"Anndee Hochman helps us to imagine the new possibilities for relationships, rituals and language ... and to understand that when we throw away that rule book we are not alone."--Ms.¶"A wonderful trove of experimentation and possibility."--The Women's Review of Books¶"This book is a homecoming!"--Philadelphia Daily News

"Tough, honest, vulnerable. The writing is flamboyant, swaying cheekily between grief and celebration."--Poetry Flash "Seaton tirelessly investigates her role as a white woman in black people's lives, particularly in the life of one black woman, whom she loves. By doing so, she adds to the necessary cargo of politics in poetry."--The Nation

"Eloquent and evocative a unique perspective."--Library Journal "A rich and magical look at Black Southern culture."--San Francisco Chronicle "A portrait of a culture.... it weaves the past into a present consciousness, creating the sense that to be human is to be a knowing part of a continuum."--Hungry Mind Review

"Her voice is clear and colorful, her imagery full, and her self-search fresh.... Barrington's passion is for the heart's dialogue, the search for the kindred other."--CALYX¶"Graceful, urbane poetry, claiming respect with its distilled clarity and hitting the deepest psychological nerves."--OUT/LOOK

An engaging portrait of a women's community looking for love. Wilson charts that little known territory--the time before mourning begins, numbness in the face of loss--and she does so with a gently ironic eye. "A sharply observed, cleanly written story of lost love....Wilson nearly faultlessly limns one woman's passage through one of life's commonest momentous events."--Booklist
