Items related to Little Girls In Church (Pitt Poetry Series)
Although Kathleen Norris’s best-selling Dakota: A Spiritual Geography has brought her to the attention of many thousands of readers, she is first and last a poet. Like Robert Frost, another poet identified with a particular landscape, she can reveal the miraculous in the ordinary, and she writes with clarity, humor, and deep sympathy for her subjects.

Review:
Kathleen Norris is best known for Dakota, her nonfiction book of "spiritual geography." This collection works much the same territory. Norris finds the sacred in the simple as in the poem "Hide and Seek," in which "A thunderclap/ rakes the field of sleep," and becomes a consecration. "Perennials" is a wonderful poem about the undeserved grace from a neglected garden. As the title suggests, this book balances fragility with power, in form and in content.
About the Author:
Kathleen Norris’s books of poetry include The Middle of the World, Little Girls in Church, and The Astronomy of Love. In addition to her best-selling memoirs (all listed as New York Times Notable Books), her most recent prose works include Quotidian Mysteries: Laundry, Liturgy, and “Women’s Work,” The Virgin of Bennington (a memoir) and a children’s book on Sts. Benedict and Scholastica (in collaboration with the artist Tomie de Paola) are forthcoming. Her honors include grants from the Echoing Green Foundation, the Bush Foundation, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, and the New York State Council on the Arts. She lives in South Dakota and Honolulu, Hawaii.
