From the Back Cover: Allison Joseph’s wise words, narrative passion, and lyrical intensity have made her a fan favorite with audiences of all ages. In Dwelling, Joseph is concerned with the inevitable search for home — as a woman, as a person of color, and as a poet. Her poems take on subjects from the serious and sublime to the humorous and ironic. Whatever her subject, Joseph is human, humble, hilarious, and high-spirited. This poet goes wherever her imagination thrives — dwelling among us and beyond us.
