Penetrating words beyond form

It's hard to believe so much intensity of word can be found in a slim volume of poetry, but Susan Howe here creates a magical world populated by a non-stop series of singularly perceptive lines. Those not familiar with her work will find a startling ability to capture meaning in disparate ways. Her complete power over words as objects can jar your senses into new meaning.
