Description
There is something utterly in thrall here, honey-slow and fixated. Driven by obsession in particular, obsession with the legendary French poet, Robert Desnos Muench's identification with a true self beyond the self's known truth is startling. from the introduction by Carol Muske-Dukes "Simone's poems have a confidence and sophistication of what I like to call intentionality. Also wit, grace, poise, and a relationship to writing beyond self-referential feeling." Anne Waldman "Lush, sprouting, sensuous images line-by-line, adopting myth freely, Muench's poems are volatile explosives, circling beauty." James Tate
