Monolithos: Poems, 1962 and 1982 by Jack Gilbert

4.0

The selections from 1962 were mostly from Views of Jeopardy, and thus I had a similar reaction to them -- that is to say, not as strong an attachment. 1982's Monolithos had more of the Jack Gilbert I had come to love when I first picked up The Great Fires. I still found the balance skewed towards poems I wasn't as interested in compared to number of poems I was, but there were a few gems in the second half of the book.
