Reviews
Twenty years after her award-winning collection Locked from the Outside comes this much-anticipated second title [The New Old Paint]. As it turns out her long hiatus was NEVER from poetry, just some time away from the poetry scene. WHAT A RELIEF! And because she never actually left poetry these new poems contain all her skills of precision and jolting epiphanies her earlier work mesmerized us with. How rare is it to read a book of poems and get wowed at every turn of the page? RARE! I say rare!

Very fast, very conceptual, funny and magical. Nobody like her. I loved her work then and now.
