Joan Aleshire's speaker, a young wife, enters marriage gratefully, even eagerly, believing it to be \"a long table \/ with friends crowding in, red wine \/ in tumblers.\" Motherhood follows, but so do infidelities and reconciliation and ultimately divorce. With each hard knock, the speaker sheds a little more of her innocence as she gains awareness of her power as both a woman and a writer: \"Coming home \/ late from a festival for women \/ where I'd said all the things \/ the audience liked, I slipped \/ into bed so flush with triumph \/ my husband recoiled from the heat.\"\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Four Way Books","offers":[{"title":"Days of Our Lives | Joan Aleshire | Paperback | 9781945588365 | Used: Very Good | Poetry 1684656","offer_id":50802275909890,"sku":"1684656","price":24.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/61K9NeuShoL.jpg?v=1792415679","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/days-of-our-lives","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
