"Olga Ravn's Fourth poem from the second continuation, from her new novel, My Work, evokes motherhood as negative capability the capacity, as John Keats described it, to dwell in uncertainties, mysteries, doubts, without any irritable reaching after fact and reason."
"The infant is in the darkness. The mother is in the light. The infant becomes, in a moment of piercing ambivalence, the darkness itself in solid form, pushed forward despite this ambivalence."
"Selected by Anne Boyer, Olga Ravn's poem explores the experience of motherhood in a unique and thought-provoking way."
