Mary Swann appeared to the world to be a simple woman, a farm wife who cooked and cleaned and performed the usual housewifely tasks. But she is murdered, and her poems (which she had privately hoarded and kept secret) are discovered. However, as her poetry begins to attract attention from scholars and the press, her notebook, her first drafts of her work, even snapshots of her strangely vanish. Shields' "Stone Diaries" was a best seller; this book deserves to be more widely read.
