Family Reunion: Poems About Parenting Grown Children

Poetry. "For anyone who has grown children, or for anyone who is a grown child--or on the way to being one--FAMILY REUNION captures the frustrations, anxieties, perplexities, heartaches and, yes, the pride and joy and tenderness that go, inevitably, both ways. These poems are a poignant record of how we age, eye to eye"--Alicia Ostriker.
