General Note

β€œThe Feast of Eurydice is something of a departure from the voice of my earlier poetry. In imagining the situations of a narrative, I discovered a new pleasure in rhythm and shape, and the clarity of song. The white magic of the Greeks had released me from the tethers of the domestic lyric.” [Quote from the author on the back cover].
