Praise for You and Three Others Are Approaching a LakeWinner of the 2011 James Laughlin AwardA Coldfront Top 30 Poetry Book of 2011“Anna Moschovakis boldly writes as though Plato had never kicked poets out of the Republic. . . . Beneath their controlled and imperturbable surfaces, her poems perform the painful experience of the complicity with injustice that comes with citizenship. . . . But this ambitious and compassionate book also believes—or hopes—that mindful attention to language might happily lead us elsewhere, toward other economies, other ways of being here together.” —Brian Teare, The Academy of American Poets 2011 James Laughlin Award Citation“Easy-on-the-ear, accessible, wise, and funny. . . . [Moschovakis] takes on the big questions by way of unusual details.” —Bookforum“Moschovakis shows us how it feels to want answers to certain kinds of questions, to see processes and seek causalities, and then get stuck in hermeneutic circles instead. . . . Mysterious, haunted, terse.” —Stephen Burt, The Nation“With You and Three Others Are Approaching a Lake, Anna Moschovakis establishes herself as the T.S. Eliot of the Internet generation.” —H_NGM_N“[T]he pleasure to be found in Moschovakis’s poetry [is] the way she theorizes and reflects on the seemingly immeasurable movements of our broken era. In her books, poetry is enacted as a living, compassionate and dynamic process.” —Galatea Resurrects
