REVIEW OF THE ARROWS THAT CHOOSE US
Excerpt: Annucci's "theme is aloneness, and each poem broadens that loneliness to become a moral voice weighing what we mean to each other and what we could mean. Some poems offer unexpected patterns, others emphasize with a stylish swag."
The book is reviewed by Grace Cavalieri of the Washington Independent Review of Books in her July 2018 poetry exemplars.
