520 _aThe poetry collection, recalls the poetic moods of two centuries, the nineteenth and the twentieth, and is nourished from the best of both. The readers of her poetry, in discovering these particular influences in the poems, will appreciate the dominant stance of the past century that has bestowed the delicate touch, almost fragile, with which Pearl depicts the bright green world of creation-even while simultaneously, by using the devices of poetic art, she transforms this gossamer touch into a vehicle for expressing life's weighty and inescapable truths.
