She has earned praise for her lyrical intensity and depth of emotion. In her new book, “Young Tambling,” Greenstreet traces echoes of a medieval ballad through history into the psychological present. She is also the author of “case sensitive” and “The Last 4 Things.” Fishman is the author of five poetry collections, including “Current” and “FLOWER CART.” Meier is the author of three books of poetry, most recently, “In the Block of the Pure Imaginary.”
