Customer Reviews

An intelligent, beautiful, important collection.

Austere and sensual, intellectual and tender, scientific and lyrical, peaceful and electrifying--"The Ghost Trio" makes paradoxical magic. For Bierds, tiny fish, ice skates, cow horn, coal dust are materials of the world that become lexical talismans--rub on them, examine them, and find yourself journeying through history as though guided by spirits.
