“‘Breath’ is the real gift of these poems, an aura that Fanny Howe works to refine until it dazzles . . . The aura of wonder, an evanescent glow felt in life’s best moments, when they seem to point beyond themselves, moves through her poems, hangs in and around them—the emanation of a stubbornly resilient spirit whose care lends her work its lovingly articulated contours.” —<em>San Francisco Chronicle</em>
