Lucky Fish

Lucky Fish travels along a lush current -- a confluence of leaping vocabulary and startling formal variety, with upswelling gratitude at its source: for love, motherhood, "new hope," and for the fluid and rich possibilities of words themselves. With an exuberant appetite for "my morning song, my scurry-step, my dew," anchored in complicated human situations, this astounding young poet's third collection of poems is her strongest yet.
