Riassunto:

"[Selected Poems] offers readers a chance to catch on to one of the most distinctive talents of our time, one of the few who can genuinely startle. . . . Ruefle is clearly one of the best American poets writing, and her body of work is remarkable for its spiritual force, intelligence, stylistic virtuosity, and adventurousness."Tony Hoagland

of all things standing furthest
from what is real, stand these trees
shaking with dispensable joy . . .
