The Second Blush, Molly Peacock's sixth volume of poems, will be published by W.W. Norton and Company on June 2, 2008.

From Molly Peacock's poem, "The Flaw," in The Second Blush:
"The best thing about a handmade pattern is
the flaw."

From Molly Peacock's essay, "Passion Flowers in Winter" (in The Best American Essays 2007), about the remarkable 18th-century botanical collage artist Mrs. Delany:
". . . a life's work is always largely unfinished, and it requires creativity till the day a person dies."
