Desire
by Lyn Lifshin
available from World Parade Books, __ pages, softcover, $13.95
The combination of eros, ebullience and triste, or sadness
she
reminds me of the ancient Greek poet Anacreon.
Ed Sanders
Here she is! Might as well stop fighting it. Lifshin is not
going to go away. For men, shes sexy. For women, shes
an archetype of gutsy independence. As a poet, shes nobody
but herselffrighteningly prolific and utterly intense. One
of a kind.
