Her subjects vary as widely as her settings, which range from the New Hampshire woods to the Arizona desert. A family life eccentric to the point of chaos, close observations of wildlife, and coastal sailing are among the poet's topics.Iowa poetry prize.American poetry20th centuryElectronic books.American poetry811/.54Alexander Pamela1948-916277MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456413403321Inland2054166UNINA
