Summary: Greatest contemporary American literature ...
Review: I got this book from a penpal with a personal dedication of Naomi Shihab Nye herself. My friend wrote me, that the author was quite excited, that a guy from Germany will read her poetry. Well, the guy from Germany did read it for several times now and this book becomes better and better the more you read it. I hoped to meet Naomi Nye at Madhatter's Tea House in her home town San Antonio, Texas in October 1996. Unfortunately I didn't meet her there, so now I hope, she'll read these words of Kai from Germany!

Summary: a great storyteller and painter of picturess
Review: Nye is amazing, both in person and in her books. She is kind and quiet and elogent and haunting with her words. Her poem, Next Time, is my favorite. It's simple and short and one of those poems that is much bigger than it's words. I find it repeating in my head from time to time. Nye is gifted and generous and should be appluaded greatly for her work.

Summary: Wolf in sheep's clothing
Review: She writes as if she's full of love and warmth, when in fact she's suffused with hatred and bigotry. She's the biggest phony in poetry. The real purpose of this book is to turn you against jews.
