Poetry. WOMAN WITH A GAMBLING MANIA is an intimate journey of witness to the powers of love and art we summon within ourselves to survive. The title of the book is taken from the name of a painting by the great French Romantic artist, Théodore Géricault. In Catherine Anderson''s poem about the painting, the artist attempts to capture the fine line separating madness from divinity in the face of one woman, and in so doing, master the art of compassion. A vivid panorama of unique characters and scenes infuse the collection: a Cambodian immigrant who can do nothing to help his young nephew, found to be illegal in America; a Somali woman crossing a busy intersection; a daughter describing the current war to the ghost of her long-deceased father. Lives are rendered in echoing themes of grief and renewal, hope and resilience. Poems recall walking down an avenue in 1960s Detroit, events in an east-coast Chinatown, or depict old photographic portraits from an archive of a mental institution, all an exploration of the shared mortality of our lives in contemporary time. Humor, elegy, and desire are rendered with an original lyricism as if these characters and events were stood watch by a woman with an intense \"gambling mania\" to understand everything in life as it plays out before her. This third collection continues Anderson''s long exploration of American pluralism. Catherine Anderson''s WOMAN WITH A GAMBLING MANIA is a generous, spirited book, alive and brimming with artists and paintings, crows and rats, portraits of the antique inmates of madhouses and asylums, and the hopeful, desperate lives of immigrants and lovers. This is a book full of \"the spark-flicker, shook-foil of things,\" a portrait of America in rich, bittersweet music.\"—Linda Rodriguez Catherine Anderson''s WOMAN WITH A GAMBLING MANIA is like a captivating game of knucklebones in which each throw is an Aphrodite throw, the rarest of all in the ancient world, for each bone shows a different face. Although Anderson''s portraits are modern, presented with unflinching detail, they are also a timeless gathering from around the globe: a father home from war, a woman in the immigrant center, a young man from Cambodia, who finds himself \"illegal\" in the United States. Anderson helps us remember our connections, \"alike/as we are in the bones after death.\" When she introduces us to our family members \"[a]t the intersection of dust and luck,\" the resemblances can be stunning. Catherine Anderson is a poet of great gifts and vision who knows that \"dreams are breath, passing through.\"—Trish Reeves When Catherine Anderson draws a target around a memory, a work of art, an immigrant''s tale, or a van stopped in the weeds of her midwestern city, she paints it with vivid poetic strokes, then bores in, leaving the reader with a hand full of bullseyes. This book of poetry should be in every urban library.—Marilyn Johnson

When Colorado marshal David Paxton gets a letter from Brianna O''Keefe, a stranger claiming to be his wife, pleading with him to come for her and his daughter, he dutifully responds and is saddled with a ready-made family.
