Channeling birdsong, the hum of rivers, the mad shush / of sound from the Highlands to the Hudson River, Wilson s poems are gorgeous and perfected distillations. Maureen N. McLane"
In this long-awaited and masterful debut, Fiona Wilson gives us astonishing and uncommon poems that may have emerged from the Scottish and American traditions but can be found somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic, while her readers come to the edge of a question by either shore. Wilson s formal brilliance is all worked through with chagrin, wit, and modesty. The mind at play in these poems is thrilled, distracted, enchanted by the feeling of words in the mouth the gray wet velvet of mizzle, the scandal of cramasie and by slips and turns of phrase, which she turns over like stones, like coins, as they become talismanic to console, perhaps, as if the secret to transformation were to be foun-d in language itself. Saskia Hamilton"
