Steerage by Bert Stern
(click on picture to order)" I am somebody's dream," writes Bert Stern, thinking of his immigrant ancestors and of his debts to them, "for what they dared and endured." Steerage settles those debts, but that isn't all it does: Stern's great gift is his ability to lighten family history by knitting it into the larger tissue of life we all have in common. From the heaviness of his history, these poems take flight." -- Lewis Hyde (Ibbetson Street Press 25 School St. Somerville, Mass. 02143) dougholder@post.harvard.edu bertstern@rcn.com $15.(p&h)
