The Virginia State Colony for Epileptics and Feebleminded: Poems by Molly McCully Brown

5.0

This is one of my favorite poetry books I have read this year so far. Brown's concept is original and the execution is tender and evocative without being exploitative or plodding (dangers I think inherent in this type of subject matter or just in books organized around this type of central conceit). A beautiful book.
