Paisley Rekdal's quiet virtuosity with rhyme and cadence, her
syntactic fidelity to thought and sensation, her analytical
intelligence that keeps homing in and in, her ambitious sentences
and larger formal structures that try to embody with absolute
accuracy the difference between what we ought to feel and what we
really do feel-all these make her unique in her generation: no one
sounds like she does, and her concern about the 'post' in
postconfessional is as much a sign of her earnest desire to honor
every aspect of her art, as it is an anxiety that spurs her
restless investigations of family, selfhood, racial identity, and
erotic life.-Tom Sleigh
