A review by jaclynellis
Afterglow (a Dog Memoir) by Eileen Myles

I really tried to read this, and to keep going when I couldn't, but something about the writing style just did not click in my brain. I appreciate poetry, but I get extremely distracted when questions repeatedly end in a period, or run-on sentences pop up. My heart wanted to stick this out since I'm a sucker for dogs and dog stories, but I just could not read this. Perhaps if I come across the audio version, I will listen in the author's rhythm that was intended.
