Wolff is a poet that is unafraid to be a querent, not only of sages (\"I only hang out with people \/ who are psychic \/ anything else is a \/ waste of precious \/ continuity\") but of language itself (\"How else is one to know how to proceed \/ How is one to make a motion against-- \/ electric word life\") In SLIGHT RETURN, the journey is infinite and elusive--aspiring in the best way toward a point of diminishing returns and withholding any promise of a comfortable landing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Wolff's mind slithers from sales to sails, snagging on the twigs and rocks of self-criticism, scorn, anger, and post-marital rage....This ruminative and startling collection offers an incisive portrait of modern life.\"--Publishers Weekly\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePoetry.
