That double edge-dazzling human possibility, potential disappointment-is at the heart of Madeline Artenberg's powerful new book. A dried-out acorn becomes the token of lives \"not fully lived.\" The unspoken nightmares of the Holocaust lie behind a father's punitive silence. A mother is \"all kisses, all fists.\" Artenberg's feminist vision moves beyond the personal-we visit Greece and Guatemala-but the visceral figures of childhood return, humanized by time, \"Now her eggshell hand tugs at my skirt.\" Monumental in its arc and canvas, \u003ci\u003eNaming a Hurricane \u003c\/i\u003eis the work of a lifetime. -D.

Artenberg tells how packs of black dogs roam in Brooklyn as opposed to a kid and his dog she sees in the beloved movie theater, her escape. And even through glamorous travel, true escape is limited-as in \"A Jew in Texas.\" This is where poetry comes in.
