About the Author

Frances Brent’s poems have appeared in The New Yorker, Notre Dame Review, Yale Review, and in many other journals. Her work is known for its delicacy and detail, evoking both the Symbolists and some of the Asian poets who inspired them. She includes May Swenson among her influences, too; like Swenson, Brent often steadies her gaze on the material world, delighting in its humor as well as its occasional horror.
