Description
Anne Pierson Wiese's hauntingly direct poems take us into the bone vault of America, where we can hear a heartbeat. She is a graceful, quietly exact, masterful poet." - Henri Cole "Wiese's poetry teaches us that the distance is not between Sioux Falls and Brooklyn, between nature and machinery, between lifeblood and graveyard, it is 'between tasting and living.'" - Shawkat Toorawa "Wiese's new book is a marvel of energy and observation." - Willard Spiegelman
