Books by JoEllen Kwiatek

"Kwiatek's poems emit the uncanny luminosities of the artists' worlds they refer to: those of Caspar David Friedrich, Albert Pinkham Ryder, Odilon Redon. Each is a 'token of strangeness' built with delicacy and restraint, embodying, vivifying what the poet calls the mind's 'lonesome flourish'." - Emily Wilson, judge, 2014 Iowa Poetry Prize
