Ambivalent Nymph

by Lisa Mangini

Lisa Mangini's Ambivalent Nymph weaves together old and new worlds, expectations and desolation, joy and darkness. A startling new voice, Mangini surprises and delights the reader with the poignancy and sharpness of her details, her vivid and incisive insights. A wonderful new collection.
