Published by New American Library 1983 139 pages;
paperback "From the beginning, from my first collection of poems ... my task has been the same: to write out of a naked female consciousness for a culture that has too often presumed the noun "poet" to be of the male gender." In Ordinary Miracles, Jong writes about pregnancy, childbirth, parenthood, divorce, death, the fear of love, and the rebirth of the spirit and the flesh that comes only when one remains open to loving. These poems are by turns witty, harrowing, sensual, painful and passionate, with rhythms that are subtle and flowing. Order this book from Amazon.com
