"By the author of "Light Falls Through You" and the novel "Canterbury Beach
In "Loop," Anne Simpson explores the power, and the anguish, of many different modes of return - retrieval, revision, the covering of old ground with eyes wider and thoughts reconditioned by difficult wisdom. These poems occur at that place where a focused, compassionate vision comes to inhabit language and to find the forms that will suffice: a Mobius strip poem that loops back on itself; a crown of sonnets that take us back to the shock and grief of the twin towers and find deep resonance with paintings by Brueghel; a set of quick improvisations like the motion studies done for a drawing class. Simpson's work shows us, again and again, the insight and excitement that come from the practice of a necessary craft in the service of a committed vision.

Industry Reviews

"With its strong lyric voice and simple yet dynamic forms, Loop is a collection that draws you, and draws you in." -Quill & Quire

"Simpson's lines ring lean and mature, and, like the late Bronwen Wallace, are full of people you know and people you don't, but want to." -Elm Street
