Description
Poetry. "A book of ruthless poise, LATEST VOLCANO masters form and forms—pantoum, sestina, terza rima, narrative, elegy—well-suited to its wily protagonist, Eros. A canny figure, unabashed by war or fidelity, in league with cruelty and memory, Eros, somewhat at the expense of the poet, evolves a wild, patient, don't-mess-with-me self-knowledge. "Stay still and love/ fades..." she says; but you, are you to move on? Loop back? Dance for your life? Well, all of those."—Stephanie Strickland
