Poetry. Grace Zabriskie's book of poems is an oeuvre that
encompasses her thirty year writing career. F. D. Reeve writes of
Ms. Zabriskie's poems: "An impassioned potpourri of images and
speech rhythms, of places and figures, spiced by independent wit
and indelible memories choreographing choruses of contradictions.
'The Castle Builds Itself, ' says one poem; in that spirit Grace
Zabriskie has built herself from her father's New Orleans cafe to
LA. This visual artist and poet of three decades so loves life that
she makes all kinds of games of its parts and pieces, projecting
her womb as a cupboard, a scene shop as the world, a house as a
man's woman, and even herself as the East Pacific Rise. Her social
satire is quick and clever; her dramatic irony is as bright as
sunlight. She's too spritely a spirit and too accomplished an
artist to leave anything human out." And Rosemary Daniell writes
"Unfettered by poetic or any other convention, Zabriskie has
created a collection that is witty, clever and provocative, and
above all, original. That her poems--untainted by
sentimentality--are also at times hard, dark and skeptical, will
paradoxically lift and delight her readers.
