"In a voice confident, diverse, and directed, Natasha Trethewey's DOMESTIC WORK does what a first book should, and more, while avoiding what first books often do-- either borrowing themes from other poets or recycling a narrow vision of family life. Here, Trethewey brilliantly discusses family not for its extremes or its small hurts, but rather for the small intimacies that symbolize larger sufferings of history, both personal and public."Trethewey, Natasha is the author of 'Domestic Work Poems', published 2000 under ISBN 9781555973094 and ISBN 1555973094.
