Threshold
An Anthology of Six New Female Poets
edited by Rona Murray
with Barbara Colebrook Peace, Dorothy Field, Alisa Gordaneer, Suzanne Steele, and Susan Stenson

Open this book at any page and you will find a poem worth reading. The six writers in this fine anthology may not be well known, but they are not "beginners;" they are skilled and confident and intelligent. Reading their work is, to quote Barbara Peace, like "opening silence." Rona Murray is to be congratulated for bringing together such excellent work in this collection.
