Angela Voras-Hills is so great at line breaks and haunting poetry of place. Be warned that this is not uplifting nature poetry; most of the nature imagery ranges from unsettling to disturbing. I may have not picked this title up right now if I had known that going in.
That said, I admire Voras-Hills’ poetic prowess and the cohesiveness of this collection. Stand-out poems for me included: “Retrospective,” “Preserving,” “Never Eat a Polar Bear’s Liver,” and “Self-Portrait of a Cat Trapped in a Motel Room.”
3.5 stars
