The
Women at the Well
by
Grace Bauer
ISBN
0-916620-33-6
96
pages $20
"In
'The Women at the Well,'
Grace Bauer sings out of silence alternative stories of the
Biblical women she first encountered as a schoolgirl listening
to the nuns. Wry humor is only one element of Bauer's illuminating
re-vision as she inhabits her women in their longing, sassiness,
rebellion, compassion, wavering, and triumph.... I had my
favorites among Bauer's women, and you will, too. Whoever
they are, the Bible will never be the same."
Carole Simmons Oles, author of Night
Watches: Inventions on the Life of Maria Mitchell

poet." Barbara
C. Ewell, author of Kate
Chopin.

The
Altar of this Moment
by
Beverly Rainbolt
ISBN
0-916620-94-8
82
pages $20
"In
'The Altar of this Moment,' Beverly Rainbolt gives us poetry
that is full of wit, verve and immediacy. Both feminine and
feminist in the best sense of the words, these pieces are
alive, almost leaping off the page with their specific urgencies.
They are poems that I will read again and that I will recommend
to my women friends." Rosemary
Daniell, author of Fatal
Flowers: On Sin, Sex and Suicide in the Deep South,
Confessions of a (Female)
Chauvinist, and other books.

Habitations
by
Brad Richard
ISBN
0-916620-82-4
120
pages $20
"'Whatever
inhabits me at this moment/ goes on doing what I do' proclaims
one of Richard's densely textured interrogations of the universe.
And indeed that universe is so palpable here because created
as much as discovered by an intelligence insatiable in its
inquisitions and disquisitions. The reigning paradox of
'Habitations'
is that, searching for a domicile, it reveals home's continuous
presence in any moment of Richard's miraculous existence."
Peter
Cooley, author of Sacred
Conversations.
