Description
To Get Here is Wendy Mnookin's unflinching exploration of her relationship with her adolescent son and his addiction to drugs. Mnookin examines the effect his addiction has on the delicate balance that exists among family members; counterpointing this perspective are the "Superman" poems, a series of highly imaginative poems told from the point of view of the son.
