Using mathematical metaphor, she touches deeply into issues of life and heart. In each poem she crosses the equal sign on many levels, beginning with visible points, lines, numbers. crossing over to life's invisible-yet-tangible delights and frustrations. and crossing back again with insights gleaned from these reflections. \u003cbr\u003e (Barbara E.

Her poetry aches and anguishes and anticipates as she chronicles what it is like to almost - but not quite - (but perhaps truly) unveil Mathematics and gaze upon her lovely face. \u003cbr\u003e Annalisa Crannell, Department of Mathematics, Franklin and Marshall College, Co-author, Writing Projects for Mathematics Courses: Crushed Clowns, Cars, And Coffee to Go. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Far from being a cold, calculating robot, 'a mathematician who is not something of a poet will never be a first-rate mathematician' (Weierstrass, 19th century).
