Patricia Carlin's first Selected Poems collection. Of her poetry, Eliane Equi wrote: "Patricia Carlin combines an adventurous sense of form with an unmistakably personal voice of sharp wit and subtle intelligence. She draws on everything from fairy tales to the techniques of Oulipo to transformations of the work of others, such as Virginia Woolf. The poems can be playful, but there is also a disquieting beauty to these lyrics."
