Review:
"Few poets address the predicament of the postmodern soul as rigorously or as intelligently as Graham .. ..'an icy thing, even in its fluency, ' this masterful collection takes risks in naming 'the small hole inside I'm supposed to love' and coldly, bleakly and dazzlingly succeeds."-- "Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)""For two decades now, graham's poems have been exercising the major muscles in the throat of our language. If you haven't been listening, I'm telling you there's a new music out there, and this book, "The Errancy, " is its finest performance."-- "The Boston Book Review""A recent profile of Graham in "The New Yorker" places her in the lineage of Eliot, Bishop, and Ashbery rather than William Carlos Williams or Robert Creeley, but it might be posited that her capacious talent now draws on all these examples: the bodiless virtuosity of formal mastery has met the flexibility and passion of the mind and eye at liberty. "The Errancy" is what might be called, among the quakers, a leading: Graham shows us a future direction in American poetry, and that future is a welcome place."-- "Harvard Review"
