- Summary:
- Vinegar Bone, the first full-length collection by Martha Zweig, reveals the world in strange but startlingly apt images. Intelligent, salty, full of extraordinary imagination and linguistic texture, these poems delve deep into the meanings of winter mornings, early peas, rocks, stars, the deaths of animals, and the death of love. A single mother and former factory worker, Zweig is no stranger to hard times. Her poems are precise, original, and moving. Whether she is uncovering the similarities between a cave and a kiss or meditating on murder, Zweig's love of language is exceeded only by her taste for truth.
