“Anne Pitkin's poems have such lyrical sweep, such a sensitive eye for the natural world as it touches the human, that reading Winter Arguments is like seeing a landscape or, better, a richly realized painting of a landscape dotted with figures. But that would leave out their music, which would be a loss. This is a wise and graceful book by a well-traveled woman who knows how to confront deep feeling and frame it to make it all the more intense.” KnowsWorldHumansWellsBookFeelingsWould BeEyeReadingNaturalLossKnow HowWiseSeeingFiguresPaintingArgumentWinterIntenseLandscapeSensitiveTraveledNatural WorldLyricalDeep Feeling Author:Rosellen Brown
