Reviews
"Taking Sylvia Plath as its acknowledged lodestar, Coutley's bold first collection offers an unsentimental extension of midcentury confessional poetry. In spare, angular language that snarls with music, she gives fierce voice to the daughter, the lover, the mother to expose the secret chafes and reframings of a woman's experience, bearing witness to the errata of lived experience against expectation--'not,' as she writes, 'for the transformation but the record.' Coutley dares her readers to a staring contest and never looks away."--Kimberly Johnson, author of Uncommon Prayer "The beauty in Errata is a perilous one--the landscape of the book its own destiny--corrective, exacting. Her lexicon holds with lovely tension 'the word fragile, the word impassable'--and still we learn from Coutley to navigate 'by the compass of a rattlesnake's tongue' and to trust 'ravens tugging at the firmament.' Her subjects ranging from family and motherhood to mortality and the inescapable dangers of the ordinary, Coutley's poems sustain 'the urgency of homing bones.'  Errata is an unforgettable volume."--Claudia Emerson, author of The Opposite House "Lover, mother, daughter, poet: each of Lisa Fay Coutley's identities plays a necessary role in this balanced and brave first collection that speaks with the wisdom of a second or third. Her ability to split the difference between lyric and narrative registers allows  Errata  to become song and story simultaneously--the act of leaving and, later, the looking back at what's been left."--Dorianne Laux, author of The Book of Men "Coutley gathers up the strongest of her images and strings them together with a needle of intense yearning and the thread of a very strong line. The ache of yearning here exists between man and woman, mother and son, daughter and father or mother, who powerfully attract and also repel like magnets. The startling objects of her imagery, such as a kitchen knife or a cigarette, contain both domestic bliss and certain danger, tenderness and precision. Coutley's poetry places these objects not only in the field of our vision but also in our hands."--John Poch, author of Fix Quiet "Coutley's collection soars when the poems in which the speaker tries to teach her sons about life are buttressed against the poems in which the speaker herself is learning about life. This is the heart of  Errata ." -- The Rumpus " Errata is the latest addition to the outstanding Crab Orchard Series in Poetry from the Southern Illinois University Press and is very highly recommended." -The Midwest Book Review , "Taking Sylvia Plath as its acknowledged lodestar, Coutley's bold first collection offers an unsentimental extension of midcentury confessional poetry.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
