Description: Emma Howell was born in Portland, Oregon, and died in 2001 at the age of 20. In her short, extraordinary life she had studied Latin, Greek, and Russian; was fluent in Spanish and Portuguese; and could get by in French and Italian. She lived in both Spain and Brazil, and travelled widely in the world. This title is a collection of her mature poems.
Synopsis: "How very gifted she was; the poems possess such an uncanny authority, swerve in such clean and unsettling ways, and hit such detailed, wonderfully unpredictable and always right-feeling notes, they're truly stirring. And there seems a haunting prescience in many of them, so quietly there. Astonishing to think she wrote them at so young an age."
