“How often does original poetry smash into the world, shattering our selves into new configurations? Carol Hebald’s poems are as fresh and surprising as tomorrow. Lyrical mysticism joins demotic diction, the passage between high and low navigated by a syntax that takes us where we’ve never been. You must read this book.” —Kelly Cherry, author of History, Passion, Freedom, Death, and Hope: Prose about Poetry “Carol Hebald’s poems, both beautiful and strong, display her mastery of a new form which I call ‘strict wildness.’ Never have I encountered a more fantastic imagination combined with a more rigorous sense of formal control.” —Peter Viereck, author of Tide and Continuities "Carol Hebald's haunting imagery and sharp attention to form make SPINSTER BY THE SEA a wonderfully dynamic book of poems." --Sarah Rose Exoo (International Poetry Review, Spring 2005)
