The Moon Inside

"Ruth Daigon's The Moon Inside is a work of maturity and full of energy. It is ripe and shapely as a perfect piece of fruit. The poems are at once lush and precise, but always there is a consciousness of time, of mortality, of generation leading from generation into generation. These poems reveal a strong sense of family and familial history. Her metaphors are exciting and gratifying, but never clever, they surprise to bring us closer to what she is giving us."
