Note to the Reader
Copper Canyon Press encourages you to calibrate
your settings by using the line of characters below,
which optimizes the line length and character size:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Please take the time to adjust the size of the text
on your viewer so that the line of characters above
appears on one line, if possible.
When this text appears on one line on your device,
the resulting settings will most accurately reproduce
the layout of the text on the page and the line length
intended by the author. Viewing the title at a higher
than optimal text size or on a device too small to
accommodate the lines in the text will cause the
reading experience to be altered considerably; single
lines of some poems will be displayed as multiple
lines of text. If this occurs, the turn of the line will be
marked with a shallow indent.
Thank you. We hope you enjoy these poems.
This e-book edition was created through a special grant provided by the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation. Copper Canyon Press would like to thank Constellation Digital Services for their partnership in making this e-book possible.
