A tour de force. The passion and the vulnerability. May need to revisit another time.

jukaschar's review against another edition
3.0
Mostly raw and angry, sometimes delicate, always highly emotional poetry. I must admit I was a bit surprised and taken aback by the frequent cursing.
In general I liked the poems. I feel like it did open up my horizon, so that's a good thing. Personally, I can at the moment relate most to the theme of motherhood, so I enjoyed everything related to childbearing, birth and being a mother and found the radicalism of Chin's writing to be a breath of fresh air.
