“In Atmospheric Embroidery, Meena Alexander takes us on her magic carpet ride of language and image. Reading her is the pleasure of displacement, but also the sadness of inescapable loss. She makes me cry. She makes me happy.” —Nell Painter, author of The History of White People and Old in Art School: A Memoir of Starting Over
—
“The beautiful paradox of Meena Alexander’s art has always been found in the distillation of her epic human and spiritual experience into a pure and exquisite lyricism. That paradox and that lyricism are on triumphant display in this book.”—Vijay Seshadri, Pulitzer prize-winning author of 3 Sections and The Long Meadow

* REVIEWS-
“From baby names to avoid (so your little one won’t get picked on) to mommy blog drama, Say No to Placenta Pics is a hilariously biting how-to, with some good (and honest) advice delivered in a fun and wickedly satirical way. You’ll laugh so hard you may wet your pants . . . something you might as well get used to after labor, anyway.”
―Caren Lissner, author of Carrie Pilby
“Say No to Placenta Pics will make you laugh so hard you’ll think you’re having contractions.”
―Leanne Shirtliffe, author of Mommyfesto and Don’t Lick the Minivan
“A refreshing read on the reality of pregnancy and the aftermath, which is articulated beautifully with a dash of uncensored humor. You can’t help but laugh out loud as there are so many relatable points in the book. It clearly brings up topics that most of us moms want to say but feel the need to sugar coat; the bad and ugly. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has a sense of humor and wants the honest truth on embarking on the journey of motherhood and for the childless friends around them.”
―Melanie Braga, mom blogger of Momma Braga and assignments editor at The Baby Spot

REVIEWS-
…. Vibrant, detailed, and mystical illustrations showing ferocious rakshasas (demons) and graceful heroes enhance the text…. The fluid and evocative prose and nonstop action are sure to draw in those who already know and love this classic as well as providing an accessible introduction to readers unfamiliar with the story. Striking illustrations and a compelling narrative bring an important Indian tale of good and evil to young readers.”
