[New-Poetry] And Elaine Equi

[TheOldMole]

“Ripple Effect” offers a broad sampling of Equi’s career, 159 poems, 
proving her as capable of a memorable four-line epigram as she is of an 
elegant pantoum, jokey self-interview, surreal meditation on the color 
yellow or tender lyric sequence. The book showcases a sensibility 
troubled by what happens around her, but capable of being charmed by 
“the exotic way / everything normal / begins looking / in order to / win 
you back.”
