Break the glass af Jean Valentine
Break the Glass has a lot of space. The gaps in the poems forced me to fill in a lot of space, which bore the mark of careful attention rather than an exercise in minimalism.
A quite epigrammatic collection of poems, quiet but with depth of thought and feeling.
Powerful and musical lyric poems of lamentation and reverie that blend the pain and wonder of modern life with the resonance of classical mythos. A strong collection by an important voice in contemporary American poetry.
Ahhhhhh. Everybody, all at once, with me: ahhhhhh. What a pleasure it is to read poems that don't want anything but to be honest. What a releif.
