"There was an air of fragility and culnerability about Musa McKim that made her friends want to be protective of her. She did not disclose with what fierce and undeceived attentiveness she watched, from day to day, the human comedy, faithfully recording her bittersweet perceptions. Now with the posthumous publication of ALONG WITH THE MOON, she has given us her slant, quirky, and quizzical letter to the world."--Stanley Kunitz Poetry.
