“Much of the charm and music of this book for me—and I believe for other readers— must have to do with this unabashed contradiction between a voice that has found its place in the poem, and a life that will not find an equivalent ease in the world.”
—Eavan Boland, in the preface to the book

“A heart-wrenching, fabulous book about love and betrayal. Through mythic disguise and formal control, it enacts a devastatingly exact account of marital breakdown, erotic vagrancy, regret and anger…a tough and beautiful collection”
—Alan Shapiro
