This novella was highly influenced by the poetry of Anne Sexton, the incredible woman for whom Peter Gabriel wrote the song, "Mercy Street."  Again, I do highly recommend this great, late poet's work.  Specifically, the following three poems by Anne Sexton had a great impact on the imagery and symbolism I have used in this story:

"45 Mercy Street."  From 45 Mercy Street, copyright 1976,
       Houghton Mifflin, Boston.

"Rowing."  From The Awful Rowing Toward God, copyright 1975,
       Houghton Mifflin, Boston.

"The Rowing Endeth."  From The Awful Rowing Toward God,
       copyright 1975, Houghton Mifflin, Boston.
