Misha Honcharenko: 'Lyric Risk: On Fanny Howe'
"For decades, Howe was recognized as a poet of holy disorientation and exacting conscience—a writer for whom bewilderment was not a weakness but a spiritual method. With this final gathering of writing from the last thirty years, she does not curate a retrospective. Instead, she composes a last interior movement, a turning inward that feels less like summation than distillation."
