Beautiful and Inspiring....

'Birth At Last' is a beautiful compilation of poetry by the artist and I would recommend it to anyone, especially to those with a love of Native culture. It's also very humorous and exciting with poems like Horse in My Bed and Horripulate. The artist's way of expressing her work is further captivating and it's easy to find yourself absorbed in her poetry with her alluring voice. It's lovely and an inspiration to all who are lucky enough to listen'
