The poems in Unfoldings deftly explore many facets of a woman's identity at different ages and in relation to ancient myths and stories. Poet Clara Eugenia Ronderos reveals truths of feminine existence, in all their mystery, and then as they find life as words in the world. "From her mouth," she writes, "had sprung the rock-hard diamond stone." I would add that many gems from her pen appear in this collection.
