"An undoubtedly powerful personae."-Publishers Weekly "Ai's cleansing soliloquies give voice to pain both personal and communal....[Dread] presents her most masterfully unnerving works to date."-Booklist "Dread has the characteristic moral strength that makes Ai a necessary poet."-The New York Times Book Review Ai (1947-2010) is the author of eight books of poetry, including the National Book Award-winning Vice. In 2009 she was named a United States Artist Ford Fellow. She was a professor at Oklahoma State University.
