This is a collection of poetry that I feel strongly deserves to have an audio format. There were several poems I had a difficult time reading, which very well may have been the intent, and I feel a reading of those specific poems would have deepened my understanding of them. These poems feel like they need to have much thought placed in their reading, to really get at the marrow. Take your time with this for full enjoyment.

Maybe I'm just currently sick of poetry but I was not feeling this.

Cute little booklet, with interesting use of language and verse, and apparently quite a deep and intertwined story behind it. Gorgeous edition (it reads and feels super snugly in your hands). Overpraised, though - foreword and liner notes promise more than meets the eye. Not enough context/content in the work itself, maybe? Maybe I simply didn't get it?
Very nice and interesting overall, yet not mindblowing.
