The Players: Poems
By Jill Bialosky
80 pages;
Knopf
Rarely has there been
a book of poetry that so wistfully, so vividly evokes that season we yearn for
all winter long—and you know we mean summer. Baseball, barbecues,
surfers, black-eyed Susans—so close we can almost feel them here on
the pages of Jill Bialosky's elegiac new collection.
— Leigh Haber
