There is both something elemental in this vision and--iron-tough. Kossman's poetics are very much in conversation with Tsvetaeva's dictum to "To live as I write: tersely." ... We need, Kossman tells us, to "learn to see / without eyes," perhaps because we must "get used to death / before it's here." This is a beautiful, honest book.</p><p><br></p><p>--Ilya Kaminsky</p><br>
