How the Hand Behaves,a chapbook by Anne Higgins, will be published by Finishing Line Press November 30, 2009.

" It is not the grand gesture that makes Anne Higgins’ poems memorable, for she is far more interested in subtle observation. Anne is a poet/ naturalist who responds to the world, and its intellect, with precision and interest. These poems preserve experience with craft and measure. But more, beyond the report, is a rare happiness with the particulars of daily existence."
