Review I enjoyed A Gleam in the Eye: Poems for a First Baby and felt I could see not only the child, but all children dreaming and concerned, nurtured and growing. Maya Angelou, author of Gather Together in My NameNever has a father celebrated the infancy of a first baby with such lyrical precision, and grave attention, with such delightful humor. May Sarton, author of Kinds of Love and In Time Like Air Product Description This tender book chronicles the aspirations of a hopeful couple as they share in the anticipation and anxiety of pregnancy, the pain, amazement, and pride of delivery, and the wonderment and joy of watching their first child's development from conception to age one, including her birth and homecoming, her visits with grandparents, and her first gestures and attempts at crawling, walking, and talking. Anyone who is a parent, or about to become one, will appreciate this incredibly loving, heartfelt look at "the glory and the dream" of early childhood. About the Author Brodsky is the author of fiftyfive volumes of poetry (five of which have been published in French by ditions Gallimard) and twentythree volumes of prose, including nine books of scholarship on William Faulkner and seven books of short fictions. His poems and essays have appeared in Harper's, The Faulkner Review, Southern Review, Texas Quarterly, National Forum, American Scholar, Studies in Bibliography, Kansas Quarterly, Ball State University's Forum, Cimarron Review, and Literary Review, as well as in Ariel, Acumen, Orbis, New Welsh Review, Dalhousie Review, and other journals. His work has also been printed in five editions of the Anthology of Magazine Verse and Yearbook of American Poetry.
