Bierds's poems, with their constantly surprising delicacy and their language rich with insight and a sensuous music, radiate real power and authority and animal presence.
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.
