Collins’ emotional complexity and unusual variety make this debut either thrillingly resourceful and moral in its uncompromising awareness to detail. In her Foreword, contest pass judgement on Louise Glück observes, “I understand no poet whose feel of fraud, the inflated vacancy that substitutes for feeling, is extra acute.” Glück calls Collins’ quantity “savage, desolate, brutally ironic . . . a booklet of spectacular originality and depth, unheard of, unrepeatable.”
