520 _aDiana Bridge's second bok is a subtle engagement with Indian themes that resonate with the themes of her own life. In a voice that is often ironic, sometimes iconoclastic, but always lyrical, the poems start from encounters with anonymous female figures from painting or sculpture as a way into contemporary issues of identity, gender and displacement, and to the larger questions still of spiriturality and love. In this polished and sophisticated collection the poet speaks to a world of shifting locations and overlapping cultures.
