Anne Carson


University of Michigan Press (Ann Arbor, MI) | February 2015
Reviews: "The contributions are as groundbreaking and unusual as Carson’s work itself...which creates a most appropriate accompaniment to the work of one of the most enigmatic of artists." --Choice
"Though rigorous in their examination of Carson's work, the contributions are unabashedly poetic, channelling their subject's innovative style." --Times Literary Supplement
Also reviewed on Rain Taxi.
