To Some Women I Have Known

"Some Women I Have Known is deliriously immersive, but the real beauty of this work is in the juxtaposition. What yokes the memory of a friend's dying mother, a kidnapped heiress, a syphilis-stricken aunt, the ivory-billed woodpecker, and a woman in a yellow steakhouse shirt? Birds, women, horses, and pears float interdependent in the persistent spume of this gorgeous book."--Barrie Jean Borich "The writing in this collection is lyrical and composed, controlled even, and I know I'll come back to it again and again."--Jill Talbot Re'Lynn Hansen's novel, Take Me to the Underground, was nominated for a Lambda Award. She teaches at Columbia College Chicago and lives on Lake Michigan.
