The Escape [Paperback]

Jo Ann Wasserman (Author)


Available from these sellers.



Book Description

December 1, 2003
In these brilliant sestinas of assemblage and their tenuous enkomion asides, the reader is taken/taking place, as if in detailed alignment with the poet-family footage scattered over the floor and glued back warily as Wasserman constructs her map of escape from that loving tyranny. An extraordinary first book in which every utterance is compelled by the imagination's fleeing from the known." -Kathleen Fraser
