From the Back Cover

'Slender' is a word sometimes used to compliment a woman's figure; but we never use the word to compliment a woman's poems. Yet it is the right word for Juli Nunlist's elegant and moving poems: for they are slender the way a Renaissance dagger is, or the high, perfect notes of a countertenor's voice. Such beauty of illumined slenderness can come only at the end of a long, complicated, and almost always dark apprenticeship in the art; indeed, it is always a hard-won beauty. Gratitude is the truest response to Juli Nunlist's poems.
