A review by demo
The Bee Hut by Dorothy Porter

3.0

I'm not big on poetry. I haven't read much and don't know enough about it to have an opinion on whether it is technically good or not, but I can safely say I quite liked this. I appreciated Porter's quick and insightful wit. There were some poems that really resonated with me, like Numbers Multiplex which were terribly clever, and The Bluebird of Death which was just a little bit too real and raw for me. The rest I didn't like as much, and I think this is largely because I have never really enjoyed poetry. That said, the subject matter was still interesting to me. I might get more out of it after a second reading.
