Breathing in, Breathing Out

Poetry. Fleda Brown's first collection of poems, <em>Fishing with Blood</em> (Purdue University Press) won the Great Lakes Colleges Association New Writers Award in 1988. She is poet laureate of Delaware.“Fleda Brown has such a wide ranging intelligence, such a large and quirky theory of subjects, and such facility with language that you come away from her poems amazed at the emotional impact under the entertaining and colloquial surfaces. This is a fine and original book . . .” —Linda Pastan.
