"Poetry for the new century: awake to the world, spiritually profound, and radiant with lyric intelligence." -Carolyn ForchéWinner of the 2011 Barnard Women Poets Prize, Our Lady of the Ruins tracks a group of women through their pilgrimage in a mid-apocalyptic world. Exploring war, plagues, and the search for a new God in exile, these poems create a chorus of wanderers haunted by empire, God, and personal trauma.from Hysteria: A RequiemNow, in the last world, we bury nightingalesbeneath the floor.Trackers with their ears to the ground listenfor angels approaching.Where is the saint, mortally torn and wearing ahood of stars,bearing her own redemption?
