With Little Savage, Emily Fragos delivers a magnificent collection in the American tradition of Robert Lowell and Elizabeth Bishop. With clean, strongly wrought lines she builds poems that are elegant and powerful. Marie Ponsot calls the collection "remarkable. What separates Fragos from her contemporaries is her amazing ability to empathize wit
"Fragos's trust in language is fruitful, and justified. [She] is a thin-skinned, tough-minded poet of this world. Her sensual sensibility is unrestrained....Her poems take us by surprise."
