Description
Poetry. "Born of an acute ear that tracks, and invents, alternative logics, Walker's poems never end up where they begin, but instead have the courage to strike out on their own, refusing tidy forms. Her vision similarly overflows, offering us the marvelously unlikely—'I will swear I saw a hummingbird sip out of a rabbit's mouth'—that stops just short of the dismissibly surreal. Instead, THIS NOISY EGG makes us consider a new world constructed by an intrepid 'I' armed with her own brand of sassy humor."—Cole Swensen
