this made me feel like I was having the most beautiful secrets whispered in my ear throughout every poem. they were not always positive, in fact oftentimes they were graphic and painful to hear. however, to encounter work that encompasses some of the individual and worldwide grief we have felt in the past years felt cathartic. within a few pages, I knew I would want to read it again, so for this one, I depended primarily on my own mind and interpretations. for future rereads, I would like to add more context (if I can find relevant interviews/analyses) to dive even more deeply into it. it is not a light read, but it is entirely worth it. there is much to chew on in this collection, and I feel I’ve only just begun.
anniefwrites's review against another edition
I wish I had a better grasp of poetry like this! The few that I feel I understood I really liked, but most went over my head.
