Black Ice
Poetry. "In BLACK ICE: POEMS you will discover Barbara Purcell's charged landscape of edgy recollections and journeys. . . she writes straightforwardly of bulimia, nude modeling, love betrayed, and early warning signs of things amiss. There are no fake notes here"-Colette Inez. "Barbara Purcell puts 'Directness' back into poetry, which is not to say she lacks metaphors, but rather they're made even more powerful by her allegiance to the truth. She's able to achieve something unique among writers--self-expression that never sounds confessional"--Hal Sirowitz. The author received her B.A. from Skidmore College in 2001 and currently lives in New York City.
