2006 Iowa Poetry Prize winner andldquo; If everyone decided to call themselves a girl / that word would stop.andrdquo; In this award-winning volume of authoritative and assertive poems, Sarah Vap embarks on an emotional journey to the land of Americaandrsquo; s female children. Questioning, contradicting, radically and restlessly demanding acceptance, she searches for a way to move from serious girlhood to womanly love. Demonstrating the seriousness of female childhoodandmdash; which is as dangerous and profound as war, economics, and history, that is, as manhood, in her viewandmdash; Vap reveals the extremes of self-doubt and self-righteousness inherent in being a contemporary American girl. andldquo; When weandrsquo; re overcome / by everything we think we loveandmdash; then by morning / weandrsquo; re adults.andrdquo; Just as the oil of American spikenard may provide relief from childhood, so does Sarah Vap provide the kind of holy and extravagant love and honor that can relieve the growing pains of andldquo; everyoneandrsquo; s little girl.andrdquo;
