Miss America - by Catherine Wagner (Paperback)

About the Book

"MISS AMERICA finds a world wide-open but unharmed. Wagner is a mage and a marvel."
--Donald Russell

Book Synopsis

"The poems of Catherine Wagner are instantly sacramental, immediately mysterious. Showing songlines to Spicer's profanity and to Zukofsky's purest register, they move through musics entirely their own. There, MISS AMERICA finds a world wide-open but unharmed. There, Wagner proves the wisdom of divided hearts. She is a mage and a marvel. I believe she is our best."
--Donald Russell
