The Art of Blessing the Day: Poems with a Jewish Theme | Marge Piercy

A beautiful book of poetry woven together to show the rich tapestry of Jewish life: family, history, tikkun olam (repairing the world), prayer and holidays. I loved her interpretation of the story of Ruth, reimagined Jewish prayers like the sh‘mah, and the imagery of growing up with an immigrant grandmother. And such a gorgeous cover! I flagged many poems for a second (and third) reading. And then I read them aloud to my spouse.
