Poetry
Most poets recollect or describe the present. In her third book of poems, Laura Quinney (whose superbly spare meditations Harold Bloom compared to the poetry of Paul Celan and Emily Dickinson) does something more uncanny: recalling what it once was like to anticipate the future, she remembers what she thought the past would look like from the present moment, and in so doing deepens the meaning of memory. This is her third book of poetry.
