It is rare that a writer comfortably crosses the bounds of genre to write poetry and ction with equal grace, but Diana O'Hehir is a rare writer indeed-both a prizewinning poet and a successful novelist. She had already published two books of poems 'Summoned', which won the Devins Award for a rst book of poetry, and 'The Power to Change Geography' before her rst novel, I Wish This War Were Over, appeared to widespread acclaim and was named a nalist for the Pulitzer Prize. Now, hard on the heels of 'The Bride Who Ran Away', her highly praised second novel, comes her rst collection of poetry in almost ten years. ' Home Free has already won the Poetry Society of America's prestigious Di Castagnola Award as a work in progress. Several of the poems included in the collection have previously appeared in The Massachusetts Review, Poetry, The Paris Review, and other publications of distinction.
