One of poetry's dreams is amplitude, the book of poems that gives a sense of life's fullness, even as it depicts the losses. Nancy Meneely's Simple Absence speaks eloquently to that dream, the range of poems honoring and testifying to a host of situations-public and private.

One of poetry's dreams is amplitude, the book of poems that gives a sense of life's fullness, even as it depicts the losses. Nancy Meneely's Simple Absence speaks eloquently to that dream, the range of poems honoring and testifying to a host of situations-public and private. Each poem deftly enacts the drama of trammeled and untrammeled emotion. Though the poems embody essences of form and feeling, lines and stanzas moving crisply down the pages, there is nothing minimal here. The breadth and depth are both inspiring. There's nothing absent in these richly-textured, various-structured, deeply-felt and capacious poems (plus a few prose pieces). Great pleasure is to be garnered from Meneely's powers of description; precise, wholly new, better than anyone's I know. Wonder is here, as well, in the particular objects, observations, ideas and emotions this poet chooses to treat as subjects: idiosyncratic in the best sense. From first thought to last, the reader's ride is electric and ultimately bedazzling.
