Book Description
A woman cultivates a knack for walking on water, but is undermined by her husband's brain, which he removes each night when he returns home from work; a couple overcomes the irksome mischief of the gods; a skeptical dragon wonders what sex is all about: this is the world of Kristiina Ehin. From the 2007 British Poetry Society Popescu prize winner for European poetry in translation: a series of comic, surreal adventures. Kristiina Ehin's quirky voice takes each story directly from the dream state, at times stubborn and resistant, at other times masochistically compliant. Ehin offers up modern folktales in which the very nature of our human identity is at stake-rampant with images and archetypes both new and old, and mediated by the abrupt changes we can only experience in dreams. KRISTIINA EHIN is a highly acclaimed performer of her poetry, prose and drama in Estonian as well as English. This is her first book of stories to be published in the U.S. In her native Estonia, she has published six volumes of poetry, three books of short stories and a retelling of South-Estonian folk tales. She has written plays, as well as poetic radio broadcasts. She has won Estonia's most prestigious poetry prize for Kaitseala-a book of poems and journal entries written during a year spent living as a nature reserve warden on an otherwise uninhabited island off Estonia's north coast. In the UK, she has published six translated books of poetry and three of prose.

Book Description
Patrice Walker invites you back to her east Texas home, to recount major events that have shaped her first thirty-six years of life. Armed with only a high school diploma, a steadfast faith in God and tons of "mother wit," "When Water Was Free" comically recalls life's triumphs and reverently shares growing pains too. When plasma described a component in blood, but not a television screen; when going to church was a family outing. Meet her parents and learn the role each played in her life and why she is who she is, today. Hang out with her childhood friends and learn of how they grew up and apart. Share in her marriage to a handsome officer in the military, and grieve with his tragic death on Christmas Day 2000. Rally her confidence, as she is confronted by "the other woman." Observe her children's recovery from the accident which claimed their father's life. Regroup with her during her "timeout." Experience her new found happiness with her new husband and son. It's all there. It is from these recollections she realizes given the "three score and ten years" the bible promises, she has begun the second half of her life. Join Patrice Walker as she speaks from her mother's front porch about her life, "When Water Was Free."
