Poetry. "Lisa Williams''s new collection, GAZELLE IN THE HOUSE, is truly a book of stanzas: poetic rooms in which to dwell. Some of these dwellings have the uncanny familiarity of ordinary domestic space and others are as mysterious and disorienting as the depths of the sea. Painting with colors at times opaque, at times transparent, moving between shallows, tide-pools, and the abysses of dreams, Williams''s voice is solitary, meditative, intimate—and in the end a means of revelation."—Susan Stewart

One glance. A shipwreck. Can a love affair forged in peril sustain two independent spirits? Lavinia Onslow, who delights in the freedom of managing her father''s millinery shop in the heart of Savannah, Georgia, has decided she may defy convention and not marry after all. Yet, in the summer of 1838, on board the elegant steamship Pulaski, bound from Savannah to Baltimore, she exchanges glances with an intriguing young man. What can ensue from a mere glance? Quite a lot, as legend has it. That very night, the boiler of the Pulaski explodes and the ship sinks, drowning most of its wealthy passengers. As Lavinia struggles in the water in her heavy dress, calling out for her father and thinking she will surely perish, someone dives in to rescue her, pulling her up next to him on a makeshift raft made of two deck settees. When she composes herself, she recognizes the intriguing man. There they float, alone but together, surrounded by ocean, thirty miles off the coast of North Carolina, desperate for a life-saving miracle. Is the bond she feels for this stranger more than an instinct for survival? Inspired by a legend --that may or not be true-- and set in the rich historic milieus of Savannah, New Orleans, and the coast of North Carolina, Between the Sky and the Sea explores how Lavinia Onslow''s desire to live as an independent woman transforms after surviving the wreck of the Pulaski.

Selah is a slavegirl, small and dusty, who fetches water from a well. She gazes at the distant mountains that hold things she has never seen--like trees, stars, lakes, and snow. Her Master Regan and The Craft have kept nature from the valleys, damning rivers and turning all to desert. They weave their material spells upon the slaves, and nothing ever changes. Then, one day, Regan summons Selah to serve him at a banquet. Before she steps into the Hall, another slavegirl tells her, "You can be walking along the same dark hallway you have trod for years, and suddenly, around the corner comes unexpected help, and everything changes." As Selah serves the guests, a stranger in a hooded cloak speaks to her. That very night, Micah leads her from the Keep, across the valley, to meet a band of travelers. They journey through hills, moors, and highlands to Mountain Gate. Selah finds beauty, music, and love in the Maker''s world and Micah. Regan follows, bent to take his slavegirl back. He captures Selah, imprisons her again, and she must face loneliness and The Craft.

Lisa William''s poems are infused with what John Hollander calls "a guarded wonder." A poet of unique vision, she seems always to be "looking at," with special attention to the experience of the senses. Moreover, Williams is equally concerned with epistemology—the how of seeing. And it is perhaps this quality of attention that informs her interest in the formulations of poetry itself, in its constructed dimension. Her control of the line, of rhythmic possibilities, of structures both formal and free, is evident in every poem. Together, William''s original voice and her poetic finesse allow her to create those harmonies of wonder evoked by the very instrument, the hammered dulcimer, that gives her collection its name. Judge for the 1998 May Swenson Poetry Award was John Hollander, poet, critic, professor. Long a major figure in American letters, Hollander was a personal friend to May Swenson, and has influenced the work of many of our best emerging poetic voices.
