Anne Stevenson is one of Britain's leading poets. Astonishment, published just before her 80th birthday, is her second new collection since her much praised Bloodaxe retrospective Poems 1955-2005. Although notes of poignant sadness, together with some witty assaults on human folly are sounded throughout this collection, its predominant tone is one of celebration. Simplicity, directness, delicacy, a rueful self-awareness without desire to slam back, a command of her materials in language and from memory - these are Anne Stevenson's gifts a s a poet and an observer.--Rain Taxi Less
