Wait
University of wisconsin Press

Ohio Violence
University of north texas press
In the fields, in the woods, in the dark waters of Ohio, something is happening. Girls disappear, turn on each other. Men watch from the rear view as the narrator hedges, changes her mind, won't tell, then shows all in this break-out collection of bittersweet and cataclysmic lyrics.
