dc.description.abstractThis collection exhibits the relationships between generations of mothers and daughters that are often frayed by misgivings about each others’ perspectives and situations. My Four Thousand Bibles is an emotive critique of ideologies that yield these generational problems, while it embraces the fluidity of spirit, being both intimate and echoing. The collection traces an arch of disquietude from a pressurized girlhood, which for the speaker bears the inevitable condition of guilt, unknowingness, and loving faith. Complemented by the records of her grandmother from poor Appalachia and by the challenges of love and partnership, the speaker’s understanding of herself and her position in time develops patience as an observer and participator in the world’s larger turning.en_US
