"There is a certain old-soulness to this remarkable collection of poems. Though Adrienne Edwards is young, and though she is everywhere frank about her anxieities , in a crucial way she is wise beyond her years. Hers is the wisdom of a poet, one for whom for each line can be on the one hand a risk and on the other a strengthening of the grip-but always out of love." Madeleine Mysko, poet and author of Bringing Vincent Home and Stone Harbor Bound "The American Girl is a collection of poetry about growing up and accepting yourself. It's about my personal struggle with depression, indentity, and finding out what i could do to make my life the best it could be." Adrienne Edwards
