There's a sphinx-like allure to the work of Beverly Dahlen, she intuits so much we haven't yet fathomed..Her gorgeous sculpted lines, perfectly tuned ear, grow on you. She's impeccable, sure of mind, modest, funny even. Aesthetics is ethics and more than ever we need an inscrutable poetic language such as Dahlen's..This book is a survival, a summons.

--Anne Waldman
