These poems are raw and brutal, spanning many themes concerning interpersonal relationships. Some of these poems I loved, but some I only liked. This came close to my favorite kind of poetry, which is beautifully written, relatively short length, with fairy tale or mythology themes that deeply discuss psychology.

This is possibly the best poetry collection I've read this year, if not ever. The poems are beautiful. I think my favourites are House of Athena, Small Hands for Moving Mountains, and Bec and His Boy.
