Creature, Creature
About Rebecca Aronson's debut collection of poetry, Linda Bierds writes, "Who are the creatures echoing forth from this book's title? The square-bodied spider, black against glass? The clicking crickets and their human counterparts, kicking free of a warm night's blanket? The hollow-horned sea goats of the imagination? Yes. And more. And more. 'Every body is a den of dens,' Aronson writes. 'Each thin wall contains its own warren..' And so, in this remarkable debut collection, 'we cluster and recur.an echo's echo.' But it is the eye, finally, that, open or shut, navigates these chambers of self and other-and Aronson's is superb." Selected by acclaimed author Claire Davis as the first recipient of the Main-Traveled Roads Poetry prize, Aronson's book is remarkable and promising of a bright poetic career.

Rebecca's beautiful book makes me ache to be a poet but know that I could neverbe one. Her poems engage the mind and delight the senses. Just when you think that you have one down, she surprises you again.
I look forward to reading more from her.
