Description
"How to see her" is a question that runs through-out this suite of anecdotal poems about Georgia O'Keeffe. Carol Merrill, her cook, librarian, reader, nurse, and companion from 1973 to 1979, offers a unique portrait.
"These intimate images convey the delicate shape of O'Keeffe's final years in New Mexico."-- Joy Harjo
"When I got O'Keeffe mss I sat down after mid- nite at kitchen table when I should've been in bed and read thru in an hour because it was interesting, curious, distinctive, focused, condensed, epiphanous, ordinary and understandable."--Allen Ginsberg
