The Voice at 3:00 A.M.: Selected Late and New Poems
by Charles Simic
slow-paced
pretty disappointed with this one. It's taken me a long time to get through this collection because they didn't inspire anything that made me want to continue.
The poems all felt bland and unimaginative. The diction was weak and most of the pieces failed to deliver any emotion. It was all very superficial and clunky. Most of the poems felt like first drafts that needed to be edited.
There were a few lines within some of the later/more recent poems that I found nice, but overall, I didn't enjoy most of the work.
