Bafflingly effective, this new collection of poetry from the
winner of the 2004 Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize seems too brief
and blithe to pack so much wallop. Intense and relaxed,
buoyant and rueful, the singular music of Kay Ryan's poetry
appeals to a wide audience. Her poems, products of an
immaculately off-kilter mind, have appeared everywhere from
the Sunday funnies to New York subways to the pages of
The New Yorker to plaques at the zoo. The Niagara
River, her third collection for the Grove Press
Poetry Series that began with the publication of
Elephant Rocks, promises to offer similar gems of
hidden wonder.
