When Sandra Agricola's first book, Master Bedroom Poems,first
appeared, fellow poets and reviewers alike expressed a delighted
astonishment at the sudden presence of such a developed and distinctive
art. What perhaps distinguishes her poetry most is her ability
to bring an unswerving honesty of perception and an always restless
intelligence simultaneously to bear on the world of experience.
"Wedding intellect to lyric in a way seldom seen in contemporary
poetry, Agricola's poems show how the dismayed can embrace their
own pain and waltz beautifully with it into the fragrant southern
night." --Roger Sauls
"Sandra Agricola's poems depend on things essential, cause
specific, which may be why, in telling detail, they feel like
ideas, the kind that are lifted whole right out of experience.
Domestic, almost allegorical, they give off a larger light. That
is the source of their intelligence, and their beauty." --
