• Sommario/riassunto: A woman of two worlds explores personal identity, spirituality and relationships in Sleep is a Country, her first collection. Her life has been both prairie and capital, French and English. Le Dressay's often removed observations and sometimes heated interactions are shared in poems connected by strong emotion.
