Publisher Comments:

"Then"

In our loss we accepted the strange shape of things

as though it had meaning for us,

as though we moved slowly over the acreage,

as though the ground modulated like water.

The floors and the cupboards slanted to the West,

the house sinking toward the evening side of the sky.

The children and I sitting together waiting,

there on the back porch, the massive engine

of the storm swelling up through the undergrowth,

pounding toward us.

Synopsis:

Ruth Stone won the most recent National Book Critics Circle Award and the Academy of American Poets Eric Mathieu King Award.
