Cool Women Volume Six

Cool Women Volume Six is a poetry anthology, containing new poems by widely published poets (Eloise Bruce, Juditha Dowd, Lois Marie Harrod, Betty Bonham Lies, Judy Rowe Michaels, Sharon Olson, Penelope Scambly Schott, Maxine Susman, and Gretna Wilkinson). Cool Women have been critiquing and performing their poems for over 20 years, and this, their sixth anthology of thematically grouped poems contains Muse-ings, Knowing/Not Knowing, Critters like Us, On Further Thought and Beside Ourselves. Poems range in subject matter (from the speed of light to extinction, from the sacred to the profane, from cutting clouds to fiddler crabs) and emotive power (from celebration and joy to wonder and grief).
