Suzanne Vega is a poet of the urban streets whose passionate eye catches the motion and vibrant colour of the life that surrounds us all. Her words can rattle and sting, exposing private crimes and inner wars, the pain of need, and the chains of unspoken law. With evocative images and clear-sighted truths, she transforms experience into art.
In this volume are her collected writings: poems and stories; song lyrics and overheard conversations; remembrances of times past and faraway countries. Through her words a portrait emerges of an exemplary artist and unique individual whose passion embraces the entire scope of human existence.
