Yetit is the right word for Juli Nunlist’s elegant and moving poems: for they are slender theway a Renaissance dagger is, or the high, perfect notes of a countertenor’s voice. Such beauty of illuminated slenderness can come only at the end of a long, complicated, and almost always dark apprenticeshipin the art; indeed, it is always a hard-won beauty. Gratitude is the truest response to Juli Nunlist’s Poems.”—Don Sheehan, former director of The Frost Placeisbn 978-0-9760896-3-6 Paperback, 120 pages $15.9510 • WWW.HOBBLEBUSH.COM info@hobblebush.com
