Review Quotes:
"Elizabeth Willis is an exceptional poet, one of the most outstanding of her generation, and Meteoric Flowers is her most compelling collection to date."--Susan Howe
"This book is a remarkable investigation of our experience and language. The poems have a rich music, but the energy radiates most strongly from the intersection of emotion and intelligence, from the cut, the startling leap, the way her sequences turn corners, build up unexpected tensions and progressions. Meteoric Flowers is a truly contemporary vision.""--Rosmarie Waldrop
