Disinheritance by John Sibley Williams is a beautiful collection of poetry about grief and healing. The poems are very thought proking and honest. I received the book from the author and am so glad I did. Absolutely a wonderful collection of poems, definitely one of my favorite collections I have read. One of my favorite parts of the collection is one of the stanzas in the poem "Hemophilia", "With eternity behind us / we were not meant to be / this broken." At first, I thought I would just read one or two and then finish it another day, just to get a feel of the poems, but I read it in one, quick, sitting. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves poetry and poetry collections.

There is a sense of longing and deep sadness in these poems, and through this darkness, the narrators attempt to name what is missing even though it cannot be named. Disinheritance: Poems by John Sibley Williams is deeply affecting.
