Stonelight
Description:... Poetry. "For a century and more, it has been our women, hillbilly women, who--despite corporate warfare and starvation, disease, poverty, abuse--have led the nation to believe in and take up the right we have to own our labor, to believe in and fight for the dignity of work. I actually pray, every day I pray, that today's generation of women will rise to tell our story, write our story, bearing its mythos and universal power for those who will need it next. Then Sarah McCartt-Jackson's debut landed in my lap. A true poetry that bends into this history with such precise vision and moral, human clarity--not to mention beauty--that I am astonished it is her first book. STONELIGHT is a triumph."--Rebecca Gayle Howell
