One Crossed Out by Fanny Howe

Issue #74
Winter 1997-98

Fanny Howe,
One Crossed Out, poems: The unforgettable voice of many of these poems belongs to May, a homeless woman, the one crossed out. The swirling language conveys a complex consciousness, bridging wisdom and madness, to deliver a searing statement on what it means to be excised from society. (Graywolf)
