4 stars = I loved it!
I read this book for a class, but it's truly some of my favorite poetry I've ever read. Murillo is amazing at playing with sound, and his more narrative poems I'll find myself coming back to reread for years.
This has nothing to do with the actual poetry, but the wide margins are slightly-too-tiny text bothered the heck out of me for the first few poems, but I got used to the font size at least.
