            Melissa Crowe, author of Girl, Giant and editor of Beloit Poetry Journal says:In this wise and searching collection, Alice Bolstridge illuminates crucial connections between the animal, the human, and the cosmic. . . . The speaker of these poems makes herself kin to weasels and wildcats, to elephants mourning their dead, and to mythic figures by whose triumphs and failures we come to understand our own struggles, our own joys.”
