Lynne McMahon offers poems of memory and youth, "all lycra and spandex"; of literary influences, from Gerard Manley Hopkins to Anna Akhmatova (from whom the book's title is derived); and of adulthood and the ambiguities of family life, a yearning to heal divisions between the public and the private, between outer meaning and inner perception.
Lynne McMahon has published three poetry collections with Godine: Devolution of the Nude, The House of Entertaining Science, and Sentimental Standards. Her poems have appeared in The New York Times Book Review, The New Yorker, The Nation, Rolling Stone, The Paris Review, and many other publications.
