Whether she writes about the Palestinians, Copenhagen, sensual passion, maternal love, manic American culture, or the northern European landscape, Heather Spears gives us what we need - clarity of language and vision, unwavering compassion, and a searching awareness that engages both human suffering and human loving, without naivete or too-knowing irony. A poetry of integrity, grace, and gentle-muscular heart. - Richard Lemm
