HEJINIAN, Lyn
Happily
“Reading Lyn Hejinian’s Happily can make one imagine a second, somewhat happier Stein telling stories in single long or short lines that are aware of one another as they go about their own affaires. The stories? That things exist, person-size, sentence-size; that events occur to change or to reconfirm these things. Happily gives lessons in language roping skills that no cowboy or girl should miss. It also seems to be a love poem.”
