Earnest in its exploration, at ease in its curiosity, and unsatisfied with its speculation, this wonderful book of poems launches free of the banality of much contemporary poetry by subverting technique in order to discover wisdom. It succeeds wonderfully.
Raised in northern Florida and Georgia, Patricia Ferrell currently resides in Manhattan, where she makes a living as an eBay alchemist, turning the trash of New York City into gold. She has published poems in the Paris Review, Denver Quarterly, and Western Humanities Review. Richard Howard is the poetry editor of the Paris Review and introduces this volume.
