Poems. "Like a steampunk great-grandniece of Lorine Niedecker,
Stephanie Anderson has cobbled together a quirky, hardscrabble, and
defiantly pre-digital idiolect in THE NIGHTYARD. Scrupulously
crafted and a little austere in temperament, Anderson's poems read,
in part, like studies of the Protestant work ethic run amok,
trusting in hard facts and practical tips to tame a mind 'too bound
to reverie.' Anderson offsets the smothered music of 'a barrel
organ being--quelched' with the racket that emerges when 'all the
tiny pianos begin to tilt off the shelves, ' correcting the rage
for order with a dose of human chaos. The poems in The Nightyard
are wise, tireless, uncommonly passionate and truly hard-won. Trust
in them."--Timothy Donnelly
