A couple years back, I finished reading The Errancy. I don't recall when I started, but the book has a 1997 copyright. I probably bought it when it was relatively new, then didn't attempt it for awhile. Anyway, I thought the poems were interesting, and for whatever reason I enjoyed the more expansive lines, compared to some of what I'd read by her before. As of '97 she was already doing the semi-collage thing, but she was nice enough to include end-notes covering her sources. (Looking at one of my penciled jottings in the volume, I see that at the time I was convinced she'd borrowed something from E.A. Robinson and forgotten to acknowledge it. But I never could find it again, so finally decided I was mistaken.)
