Carrying over
"In this unusual collection, Pulitzer Prize-winner Kizer translates verse from several languages and juxtaposes works by known and less familiar writers with journals she kept while living in Pakistan. This is a book lush in its varieties of language and writing styles, and it is Kizer's deftness that controls the material, keeping the cultures discrete, while at the same time ensuring that they complement each other, that they "carry over."--Publishers Weekly.
