Read Mules of Love Storyline:

Balancing heart-intelligent intimacy and surprising humor, the poems in Ellen Bass's Mules of Love illuminate the essential dynamics of our lives: family, community, sexual love, joy, loss, religion and death. The poems also explore the darker aspects of humanity—personal, cultural, historical and environmental violence—all of which are handled with compassion and grace. Bass's poetic gift is her ability to commiserate with others afflicted by similar hungers and grief. Her poem "Insomnia" concludes: "may something/ comfort you—a mockingbird, a breeze, rain/ on the roof, Chopin's Nocturnes, the thought/ of your child's birth, a kiss,/ or even me—in my chilly kitchen/ with my coat on—thinking of you."Marketing Plans:National advertisingNational media campaignAdvance reader copiesCourse adoption mailingAuthor Tour:BerkeleyBostonMinneapolisSan...
