Furs Not Mine by Andrea Cohen

The poems in Furs Not Mine display Andrea Cohen's masterful craft and lyricism and her keen wit. In Cohen's elegiac shoals, we see how Great griefs are antidotes / for lesser sorrows, and in her strange, surprising narratives, we glimpse a man darting into traffic for a hubcap, meaning to build his dream / vehicle from scrap. These poems, too, have the feel of dreamy constructions, in which bliss from a distance, can look like pain. That's the magic of this collection: it holds loss and promise in the same image--sometimes even the same word.
Andrea Cohen's poems have appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, Poetry, The Threepenny Review, The New Republic, and elsewhere. Her earlier poetry collections include Unfathoming, Furs Not Mine, Kentucky Derby, Long Division, and The Cartographer's Vacation. She directs the Blacksmith House Poetry Series in Cambridge, MA, and the Writers House at Merrimack College.
