In her introduction, Marilyn Hacker writes: "'I have told this story many times, ' says the poet, implying, I think, that it is a story which has been told in many times and places, by different voices, to different audiences, because it is one of the quintessential human stories: how a child gains consciousness at the cost of 'innocence' when s/he precisely realizes that harm is done, that the seemingly eternal moment of childhood is part of the irrevocable passage of history: not 'history' in the abstract, but that of the specific time and place in which/of which s/he becomes aware".
