"Rarely do I read a book all in one sitting then want to run out into the world yelling, You've got to read these poems!, but such is the case with Cindy Veach's newest collection, Her Kind. Grounded with poems about the Salem Witch Trials, Veach moves from historical to personal to political without missing a beat. A chronicle of women's histories--our losses, what was stolen, and ultimately, our strength in what we take back. Her Kind is a stunning collection of lyrical, powerful, and poignant poems, where we aren't at the top of a hill looking down at what happened, we are immersed in the stories and--We climb with her. We climb with her. Her Kind is a book that reminds every woman to never let anyone take her magic--an absolute must-read and an essential collection for every bookshelf."--Kelli Russell Agodon, author of 'Dialogues with Rising Tides'
