Books by Julia Connor







"Julia Connor's poems are spare and elliptical but straight to the heart of things. I admire‹in the words of one of the poems‹their stark elegance." --Dennis Schmitz

"Connor is nimble, her writing rich and nubby." --Viola Weinberg




"I have admired the singular lyricism and highly engaged 'ear' of her craft...a poet of the first order. " --Anne Waldman




"One feels the refined precision of poems in the "Greek Anthology"; there are few poems flowing with this grace and forthrightness." --Michael McClure




" A thoughtful and precise work of poetry and history, eloquently crafted, woven with subtle intent and grace. Connor's work sustains a lucidity, a clarifying presence of light works through her text. Its clarities enhance the mysteries it follows. An exciting demonstration of how a poet places herself in a landscape unthinkable without her." --David Meltzer




"...a strong and powerful voice...depicting areas of human experience, and in particular the female experience, in a unique and powerful way." --Diane di Prima
