Sobre IBD

'With her precise ear for just the right descriptive word, Alison Hicks’s poems enlarge daily life. Whether running into the father of a childhood friend who committed suicide, or meditating on Chekhov, or reciting the mantra of drugs used to treat migraines, Hicks transforms daily experience into something larger and more transcendent. Her poems glow.' - Kim Roberts, author of Animal Magnetism, The Kimnama, and The Wishbone Galaxy
