Transfixingly sensual, yet devastatingly tender, GIRLBLOODED lays bare the beating heart of woman-kind. Mother, daughter, woman, girl, Hallie NowakÕs poetry waxes & wanes effortlessly through the life cycle of all things female with an emotional intelligence and voice all its own. With careful attention to language, GIRLBLOODED sinks you deep into the most intimate core of yourself, and is unconditionally present with you long after the pages end.
