Praise for Carol Snow's work: "Many feminist thinkers and artists have tried in the last decade to understand the relation between gender and language, language and violence, violence and art. [Carol Snow] frames these issues at the roots of perception. . . . This is a work of difficult beauty."--Robert Hass, University of California, Berkeley, and former Poet Laureate of the United States "[Carol Snow] teaches us, among other things, how fiercely syntax can be used as an instrument for self-scrutiny, and how brutally self-transforming a verbal action can be when undertaken in good faith. For although it is the relationship between aesthetics and politics which is most apparent in this work, it is the sustained and almost desperate personal honesty . . . which surprises and moves me."--Jorie Graham, University of Iowa "Not only perception informs the poems, but a conceptual daring capable of posing sunlight as wind or gratitude as the condition of things. . . . An elegiac and at times erotizing regard for the 'complexity / of resemblances' and for what resemblance leaves unstated, untouched, makes "Artist and Model ." . . a deeply affecting book."--Nathaniel Mackey, University of California, Santa Cruz
