C.D. Wright's thirteenth collection, Rising, Falling, Hovering, reminds us what poetry is for. This is poetry as white phosphorus, written with merciless love and depthless anger. --from the Griffin Prize judges' citation
Wright is a resolutely experimental poet, funny and intemperate, and the poems in her latest volume manage an unusual alchemy--they have a raw, unfinished quality that never feels provisional. --The New Yorker
