With the publication of this volume, Lissa Wolsak - who seemingly emerged as a fully-formed poet in the mid-1990s after various other pursuits - emerges for the first time once again. Her work is neither easily classified, nor traceable to a particular school or lineage, but instead continually creates its own unimpeachably evanescent context, independent of thought outside the work itself. "The mirror would do well to reflect further, " demands one of Jean Cocteau's Orphic "radio" voices. Wolsak's poetry more than satisfies this strange demand, for the self-reflective moment in her work takes us far beyond fashionable literary recursion, finding again and again a genuinely mysterious interpenetration of awareness, language, and human care. Squeezed Light includes all of Wolsak's previously published poetry to date, her poetic essay "An Heuristic Prolusion, " an interview with the author, and an Introduction by George Quasha with Charles Stein.
