Synopsis
Kasischke is the author of two previous collections of poems, Wild Brides and Housekeeping in a Dream and the novel Suspicious River. She teaches at Washtenaw Community College in Michigan.
Michigan Quarterly Review
As a poetry of the entangled passionate and familial tragedies that poets in postwar America have opted to write into the public record, I have found no collection of poems more moving or profoundly aware or skilled with intensity and restraing than this one.
