What Lies Beyond

By Judith Farr

Poetry. "Judith Farr's literary talents are known, and now she gives us new poetry with mastery of language, lasting characters; her soul and heart connected to the word. A seasoned writer keeps the promise that storytelling becomes poetry only when language is renewed with beauty. I love reading Farr's created events; especially the artists and historical figures she breathes alive with craft and grace. Writing the long-form narrative means holding change and continuity together. The strategies and techniques are beneath the line, but we don't read these poems for 'technique, ' as fine as it is, but for the life energy in Judith Farr's imagination. And we read because we want the humaneness that's found there."--Grace Cavalieri

"'She required bloom, ' the gardener declares and, 'throwing the shutters open'--poetry ensues. At once magisterial and tender, elegant and earthy, economical and resplendent, these poems are imbued with authority of voice and breathtaking beauty. Judith Farr's WHAT LIES BEYOND is, quite simply, an astonishing book."--Maxine Silverman
