In his second book from Casa de Snapdragon, Charles Ad?'s Fishman focuses entirely on women - their memories, dreams, griefs, triumphs, and visions. In the Language of Women honors women's lives and frees the voices of those who have found it difficult, if not impossible, to address actions and events that have wounded and transformed them. It is also a book of fifty-two unforgettable poems in which the distinctive journeys of more than thirty women have been rescued from oblivion and brought to vivid life.
