She Had Some Horses: Poems 

A new edition of the beloved volume by Joy Harjo, one of our foremost Native American poets.

First published in 1983 and now considered a classic,
She Had Some Horses is a powerful exploration of womanhood’s most intimate moments. Joy Harjo’s poems speak of women’s despair, of their imprisonment and ruin at the hands of men and society, but also of their awakenings, power, and love.
