The Favorite is a touching & poignant book of poetry by local Sausalito author Lucinda Watson whose poetry has appeared in various literary journals. Her new, first collection of poems has been called "an arrow to the heart". Sixty-four poems are offered in three chronological parts from childhood to later life. The talented poet portrays her elite, upper crust, East Coast childhood of social privilege and the psychological costs associated with it. Kirkus Reviews says this: "Thoughtful, well-crafted poems that trace a path to self-discovery." Lucinda holds two master's degrees and was an instructor at U.C. Berkeley's Haas School of Business. Her father was chairman of IBM, the company her grandfather founded.
