A review by aristosakaion
One Secret Thing by Sharon Olds

3.0

adored the muteness to this, and it gripped me until the end. i'm doing a cleaning spree of books on my phone that have been digitally rotting since last year, and bright dead things left a bitter aftertaste. this, however, was very good. really liked how the poems are structured individually, and how from top to bottom olds sweeps the reader with the language. austere and precise like an affectionate gunshot. really want to read more.
