Reclaiming the Dead

By Miriam N. Kotzin

Book Overview

Most memorable among these beautifully modulated lyric poems are the evocations of tranced stillness-a world immobilized by a porcelain decorum, a hopeless enthrallment, and the intense loneliness of living in the company of another's indifference: "Over his body, her horizon / she watched the dawn alone." Written over the years, the poems reveal an inner history as a submerged life comes to the surface, moving from the spellbound to the elegiac. - Eleanor Wilner
