The Sourlands (Ontario Review Press Poetry Series)

" The voice of Jana Harris unique in American Poetry. Whether she is writing about her white and Native American neighbors in the down and out region of the Pacific Northwest she calls Useless Bay , or about herself as the "bad daughter of a bad daughter,"hers is a voice of true grit-sometimes harsh, sometimes funny, always close to the bone,tart and indomitable.
