In her searching, musical poems, April Bernard explores a range of subjects and formsfrom a memoir sequence about New York City's East Village in the 1980s, to "disheveled" sonnets of spiritual self-interrogation, to darkly comic hallucinations. Bernard's idiosyncratic and profoundly emotional voice combines flights of fancy, moral sternness, and wit.
