In Between the Dancing
This impressive first poetry collection traverses time and place with ease. Acute in her ability to juxtapose cultures in a breath, Gleeson is as much at ease adopting a perspective on Tongan women as on the wife of the Desert Fox, Irwin Rommel. In Between the Dancing was the winner of the 2008 IP Picks Best First Book Award.”
