Cathy Song is the author of four previous books of poetry: Picture Bride, winner of the Yale Younger Poets prize; Frameless Windows, Squares of Light; School Figures; and The Land of Bliss.
An intensely lyrical, elegantly modulated collection. . . . Song's
careful, painterly eye makes her the mistress of small moments of
perception that, strung together, expand into a larger frequently
numinous understanding.-- "Women's Review of Books"
Whether describing everyday errands or probing the depths of
emotion, the poems in Song's third collection are at once vivid and
fluid, short-lined rhythms, lend themselves to an understated
assurance, allowing the poet to startle--even to shock.-- "Virginia
Quarterly Review"
