In Ask the River to Talk About the Horses, Judith Waller Carroll shares beautifully written poems about growing up in Montana. Her poems travel in time, and as I read them, I feel like I'm walking through history. She skillfully takes you inside the physiology and the psyche of the horses she loves: How their hoof beats scattered the leaves / that fell from the trees each autumn. Her poems reveal new ways of seeing, poems that move the way horses do, their manes flowing like wind / each sigh and nicker echoing across the sky.
-Diane Frank, author of While Listening to the Enigma Variations: New and Selected Poems
Judith Waller Carroll's poems caught me from the first lines of the first poems. She encapsulates her stories in brief anecdotes, snatched moments, and does so brilliantly.
-Joan Leotta, author of Feathers on Stone
