COLD COMFORT
"Maggie Anderson celebrates the quotidian in her subtly eloquent
poems. She writes movingly of lives in her native West Virginia,
whose privacy and dignity she defends against the selfconscioasness
of art and the falsification of history. Hers is a generous vision."

IN EVIDENCE:
POEMS OF THE LIBERATION OF
NAZI CONCENTRATION CAMPS
A collection of poems in the voices of allied troops who liberated
Nazi concentration camps in Europe in the spring of 1945. "The
very 'unliterariness' of these lines only heightens their effect. Of
several recent poetry volumes devoted to the Holocaust, this is by
far the most worthy as
history.'~Booklist
