Not as good as Ignatz, but there are still some gems. Youn is a very generous and fair poet--she uses every device in the book, tries on every poetic hat, and gets away with nearly all of them. Poems are incredibly varied in form and content. This definitely feels like a first book, but it's still a damn good one.
