Never saccharine, these poems are by turns cheeky and heartfelt, grounded and wistful, and above all--surprising. New Life is a book that is Dantesque in its ability to commune with the dead without becoming fixed in the past. Instead, the poems here have a distinct sense of nonlinear time, where each line feels like an ancient bone discovered, only to be reassembled into a chimera of another self. In this way, Bozičevic continually greets herself as a stranger, reminding us that in some respects every poem is a love poem.\n \nBozičevic's determination to expose the unsettling truths of her own desire--her own materialism, sexuality, and shame--makes for a collection that is all the more stunning for its willingness to place its author between the crosshairs of her poems.--starred review for RISE IN THE FALL, Publishers Weekly\n \nPoetry.
