As a writing instructor, I so appreciate the balance and humility that Jeanne expresses in her aesthetic theory. Her accessible focus on immersion in the reading of poetry and a commitment to diligence in the cultivation of writing skill relieves the anxiety that so many of my students feel as they question if outstanding writing is a gift available to a brilliant few only. Like Jeanne, I eagerly “hold my breath waiting for the way the next generation will use form” to cultivate their own sacramental visions of beauty & truth.
