challenging
reflective
I didn't expect to deeply contemplate the many facets of the word, animal, and connotation of 'pig', but I suppose that only speaks in favor of Sax's poetry collection as that was indeed what I ended up doing. There's a near viscous quality to their writing that mires you as the reader into the poetry. Was reading this pleasant? Hmmmm...no. Was it fascinating and engrossing? Absolutely.
If you're one for visceral description and uncomfortable contemplation over a wide breath of tangential topics this will be in your wheelhouse. I know there are specific sections of poems that I rather want embeded in my brain although my personal enjoyment of the individual poems varied wildly throughout the collection.
Thank you to NetGalley for the advance digital copy to review.
