Fanny Howe
“‘Breath’ is the real gift of these poems, an aura that Fanny Howe works to refine until it dazzles….The aura of wonder, an evanescent glow felt in life’s best moments, when they seem to point beyond themselves, moves through her poems, hangs in and around them—the emanation of a stubbornly resilient spirit whose care lends her work its lovingly articulated contours.”
