5.0 out of 5 stars JACKET BLURBS, April 23, 2009
This review is from: Acquiesce (Paperback)
In Acquiesce, Sarah Wells writes with an intense clarity, poems so beautiful on the surface that the gravity of their depths takes your breath away. Wells excavates the burdens and blessings of a given life with lyric elegance, with frank candor, and with a wisdom rare in poetry today. This is an amazing debut. - Eric Pankey

Sarah Wells is a young poet who writes with a command of language and form, an originality of subject matter, and a depth of insight. It is a pleasure to read her fine poems, and we will be hearing more of her refreshing and true voice. - Michael Miller

Calm, observant, yet full of deep feeling and vulnerability, the poems in Sarah Wells' first chapbook move the reader with their mature wisdom about human endurance, their grasp of natural rhythms, their faith. Whether set in the farmland of the midwest or the far reaches of New Zealand, their impulse is to find balance between the inner and outer worlds. Acquiesce is at once a promising beginning to this poet's career and a genuine, poised achievement. - Floyd Skloot
