This collection just went completely over my head. I don't think I knew just how prentious the writing would be. The collection sounded interesting but overall, I just wasn't able to comprehend any of it.

Jorie Graham has created a stunning and timely book in Runaway, asking us to consider how fear about the future of the world combines with love and joy. Just beautiful!

Graham's collection always feel familiar, but fresh. I love her voice and the way the words work across the lines/pages. I look forward to each new release from Graham and am not the least bit disappointed with the beauty within this collection.

Another strong collection by Graham, one of the leading poets in the US. With spare beauty and linguistic fluidity, Graham takes the reader through the poems meditating on age, nature, and the crystalline moments of life.
