In September They Draw Down the Lake, a chapbook from Alexandria Quarterly Press was released in December of 2020.

“I opened this book on Long Overdue and was reminded of Charles Simic’s claim that the secret wish of all poetry is to stop time. Indeed. I’m stunned by Suzanne Simmons’ marvelous ability to do just that: stop time and show us what is on the other side, when all the circumstance is dropped and we are together, in the same room, human to human.”

—Ilya Kaminsky
