T S. Eliot, Elizabeth Bishop, John Ashbery - and Jorie Graham. The
New Yorker places Ms. Graham in this distinguished line of poets, heralding
the Pulitzer Prize winner as a profound voice in American poetry. Now,
in her eighth collection, she further enhances her reputation with a book-length
sequence of verse that is a stunning work of grandeur.
The New Republic writes, "for 'swarm,' in other words...read
'be born again.' Graham is writing about a spiritual turning point, a new
beginning.... Beauty - that is, the pure sense-perception which has long
been a concern for Graham - is no longer the most important criterion.
Now goodness is...[and] the idea of submission, of obedience, without understanding:
one must 'yield' before 'hearing the reason' for yielding."
