Book excerpt: "What the Body Knows" is a collection of poems that seeks the language of what lies deeply within the body, to listen and to name the longings, losses, and gains of a long life. "In bygone centuries a mirror was held to the lips of a passing loved one to check for the delicate mist of life. These poems are like that mirror. To their reflecting surface clings a distillation of clarity and wisdom, precious to those who look into the glass." --"Rhoda Janzen, Author," Mennonite in a Little Black Dress "and" Mennonite Meets Mr. Right "Jean Janzen addresses her treasured topics--desire, mystery, language, family and heritage, music, embodied spirituality--with confidence and grace. 'Write it, the hunger and the song, ' says one poem. And she does, brilliantly. Janzen's vision has never been clearer; her words have never confessed more truth. This book took over 80 years to write, and its final, passionate message is 'mercy, ' a resounding 'Yes.'" " --Julia Spicher Kasdorf, Author, "Poetry in America "In 'Winter Child' Jean Janzen remembers 'a kind of ecstasy' from a wintry afternoon, her 'small figure falling again and again / to make a host of angels in my own backyard.' Steeped as they are in loss and grief, these poems may hardly seem angelic--except in their glimmering music, their wintry knowledge, and their generous wisdom. "What the Body Knows" is a book to savor and to treasure." "--Jeff Gundy, Author of Songs" from an Empty Cage "and" Somewhere Near Defiance The Author: Jean Janzen, a poet living in Fresno, California, is the author of six previous collections of poetry who has received a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship and other awards.
