ANDREA HOLLANDER(formerly Andrea Hollander Budy) is the author of three chapbooks and four full-length poetry collections. Her honors include the Nicholas Roerich Poetry Prize, the D. H. Lawrence Fellowship, a Pushcart Prize for prose memoir, two poetry fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, and two from the Arkansas Arts Council. For twenty-two years Hollander was the Writer-in-Residence at Lyon College, where she received the Lamar Williamson Prize for Excellence in Teaching. Now a resident of Portland, Oregon, she is the recipient of a 2013 Oregon Literary Fellowship and a finalist for the 2014 Oregon Book Award.
As a poet, Hollander is a writer of great presence, dazzling while unnerving the reader with her uncanny ability to depict human relationships in poems that explore life in all of its gritty agony and beauty. In these pages, she unveils portraits of her mother and father in their final days, men she loved in her youth, and her husband whom she will ultimately divorce. The Journal (WV)"
