In this unabashed and sometimes startlingly self-reflective work, she chronicles the life of a sorority sister in the early eighties' haze of sex, drugs, and rock and roll. She writes about her experiences of travel to Italy, Germany, and France, both as a fledgling twenty-something and later as a married woman. She recounts her lengthy battle with alcoholism in therapy, in the poems that sometimes seem to materialize right before the reader, and other times just in the beauty of a particular bird or flower. O'Malley reminds us with this vivid retelling that creativity is first, last, and always fueled by personal growth and experience. |
