- Summary:
- "In these translitics of sixteenth-century sonnets by Louise Labé, James' contemporary voice allows Labé's struggle with passion and eroticism to surface with new life. James' remarkable command of language and diction is electrifying as it reflects mirror images of Labé's sonnets with an edgy, blues-colored, modern sensibility."--BOOK JACKET.
