A Poetry Book Society Spring 2019 Special Commendation. Chosen as a
TLS Book of the Year 2019. This generous volume collects new work
by one of the most elegant and pertinent poets working in English.
Hacker writes pantoums, sonnets, canzones, ghazals and tanka; she
is witty, angry, traditional, experimental. Her poetry is in open
dialogue with its sources, which include W. H. Auden, Hayden
Carruth, Adrienne Rich, and latterly a host of contemporary French,
Francophone and Arab poets. Hacker's engagement with Arabic, almost
a second language in Paris, where she lives, has led to her
exchanges and engagement with Arabic-speaking immigrants and
refugees in France, whose own stories and memories deepen and
broaden her already polyglot oeuvre. Her poetry has been celebrated
for its fusion of precise form and demotic language; with this, her
latest volume, Hacker ranges further, answering Whitman's call for
`an internationality of languages'.
