REVIEWS OF LAST TOMATO

Poetry by Jane Ledwell

"Another beautifully produced collection out of Acorn Press . . . [Ledwell] spices this collection with the tang and bite of startling description and the sharpness of apt restraint. Skilful and compassionate, she moves from narrative to lyric easily, and the poems, which travel the course of the seasons, overflow with images of birds, trees, the earth, water, all which speak not only her love of the island but an embodied sense of place. . . . These poems are borne out of instinct for the land and the complexities of relationship; they are crafted with faith, without excess, and with a distinctive sensibility. . . . The solid and striking poems in Ledwell's Last Tomato promise a long season of plenty."

-- Lorri Neilsen Glenn, Atlantic Books Today
