520	1		_a"Anne Kennedy's first book of poetry deals with the domestic life of a family - mother, father, and two small children - but in particular the gruelling experience of eczema from which the little girl suffers. Told from the mother's point of view and set amid moves of house, the textures of a Maori/Pakeha household, and fruitless encounters with 'healers' of many kinds, Kennedy weaves a moving and profoundly recognisable picture of parenthood - its anxieties and joys, its fatigue - the contemporary situation of women and the power of love under harsh circumstances"--Book jacket.
