Debra Bruce
I admire Debra Bruce's adroit
use
ofform. Through it, paradoxically, she
has acquired the freedom
to
confront subjects that range from cancer
to
infertility and she does
so
with grace.
-Maxine Kumin
Along with such poets as Marilyn Hacker, Jane Kenyon, and Mary Oliver,
Bruce has given
us
another woman's voice we have
to
listen to!

The idea that "America may always
be
more a passage than a place"
is
explored with kaleidoscopic resonance and cut·glass clarity in this moving
second collection
by
Mississippi poet Shirley.... Throughout, both time and
space are evocatively shape·shifting dimensions.... Shirley's measured lyric
language and seamless craftsmanship reveal the offroad intimacies and
profundities of the American landscape.

Judith Baumel
is
one of the most gifted younger poets writing in this
country.
-Robert Hass
Baumel somehow manages
to
be a mistress of metaphor, a plainspoken
observer, and a meditative poet all at the same time.
