“ASH AND BONE is the distillation of a lifetime’s experience, a poetry of insight, pity, motherhood, daughterhood and inspiring survivals. Anne Rath’s poems are a joy to read and re-read; filled with a distinct personal music, a tone that is uniquely Anne Rath. Her collection is a beauty, a permanent joy.”
