Book Description

January 1, 2008
Falk's work seamlessly bridges poetic landscapes often thought at odds: free verse and narrative, the confessional and the sociopolitical, the interrogative sensibility of the avant-gardist and the musical ear of the of the lyricist. Crazy Jane sings to us while simultaneously disrupting the flow; the poems.manage to dislodge us from complacency, not through an outer violence, but through a quiet, though raging, inner sense of desperation. Such urgency is difficult to capture, and Falk does so. A truly unique and honest voice in American poetry.
David Wolach, Wheelhouse Magazine

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful and Moving Poems., September 15, 2008
This review is from: Crazy Jane - poems (Paperback)
Pat Falk is a writer of insight and skill. "Crazy Jane" her title is ironic as it can be, because this poet is anything but crazy, and that is the point. Falk is playing on the idea of the poet seer, in this case a woman, who sees the world so clearly that others caught in the madness of their cultures cannot see. "My language is my body I am/ very much alive." Falk writes at the end of "What She Knows," and she knows a great deal. Every woman can identify with the urgency in these poems. Falk's poems bear wisdom. "This is a moving read, " says Annie Finch, and she's correct. This book is highy recommended.
