"Reading Lindsay Illich's rile & heave is for me not unlike an
enjoyable case of hypnagogia, in which the mind plays between
wakefulness and sleep and vacillates between the real and surreal,
coherence and fragmentation. Illich's poems are full of grammatical
dynamism; her verbing is unpredictable and often surprising. Most
significantly, in the hearts of these poems a pulse thrums, an
intensity centered on memory. Illich's language reveals how memory
is ultimately imaginal, complex, and dreamlike. This is a beautiful
debut."
--William Wright, author of Night Field Anecdote and Tree Heresies,
Series Editor of The Southern Poetry Anthology.
