Anne Rouse is a writer of sharp, satirical portraits and graceful lyrics about the ordinary and the bizarre. Her perspective in Ox-Eye, which refers to a small cloud that precedes a storm, is one of apprehension in poems about personal and social change. These incisive but often amusing poems explore how we perceive the past and present, dismantling outdated nostalgia, and critically examining our desires and potential outcomes. Ox-Eye is her fifth collection from Bloodaxe, released 14 years after her previous book, The Upshot: New & Selected Poems. This collection includes new poems from The Divided (2008), as well as selections from her first three critically acclaimed earlier collections: Sunset Grill (1993), Timing (1997), and The School of Night (2004).
