"Delicate, sometimes wavering or shimmering, Sarah Green’s poems intercede between the other world and this one. Lyrical phrasing, poetic rhythms encounter the unmistakably worldly. In “July Linden”: “That city tree/coming in like a tide, like a piece of music/or embroidery then sailing off, I still didn’t know/it was a tree” and “I finally didn’t trip over my shoes in the hall.” Her jolts back to earth are not so much jolts as much as they are gentle bouncing. For we soon return to the imaginary. In “Sunday Afternoon, Spain,” the sun-stricken speaker seeks refuge: “The synagogue was a snowdrift/I wanted to fall asleep inside, but you kept finding me/and making me walk . . . .” It’s rewarding to follow these poems, wherever they lead us. We are the beneficiaries of her clear-eyed witness, her dispassionate intercessions."- Dana Roeser
