Uneasy nights out with dead Russian poets, dalliances with German gas-fitters, and emotionally fraught games of badminton are brought together for the first time in this time-spanning selection of Anna Jackson's poetry. Local gothic, suburban pastoral, and answerings-back to literary icons are all enhanced by Jackson's light hand and sly humor. Pastoral yet gritty, intellectual and witty, sweet but with stings in their tails, the poems and sequences collected in Pasture and Flock are essential reading for both old and new admirers of Jackson's slanted approach to lyric poetry.
