My Mother Did Not Like to Hug

ABOUT THE BOOK My Mother Did Not Like to Hug: New and Selected Poems is the product of half a century of work, four published books, and a lot of sweat and tears. It is a very special volume by award winning New York poet and teacher Nikki Stiller. Of her work critics have written: "Autobiographical confessionalism is vastly expanded by history, ethnography, religion, and more in the hands of Nikki Stiller. She wants to tell the truth so that the reader can identify his/her deepest secrets with it."- Jeffrey Jullich "Yours is a distinctive voice." - Czeslaw Milosz, Nobel Prize Winner ABOUT THE AUTHOR Nikki Stiller was born in Hartford, CT in 1947. She holds a Ph. D. in English from CUNY where she won the Parsons Award for Best Dissertation of the Year. She has taught at Hunter College, Tel Aviv University, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Baruch College and, for many years, was a professor of English at the New Jersey Institute of Technology where she won two teaching awards. Her work has appeared in a range of periodicals, from The New York Times to Home Planet News, and including Primavera, Response, Midstream, Lilith, and Poetry New York. She is the author of six books, four of them poetry: Notes of a Jewish Nun, On Both Frontiers, Burial Ship, and My Own Afghanistan. Of her work, both Lionel Trilling and Czeslaw Milosz have declared that she has a "distinctive voice" and Gabriel Preil, winner of Israel's coveted Bialik Prize, has called her poetry "warm, witty, and wise." She is a member of PEN.
