Human Dark with Sugar by Brenda Shaughnessy

5.0

It's been a while since I sat down and read a whole book of poetry just for the hell of it. And I think I may have ruined the experience for a while, because I can't imagine many books living up to this one.

I loved this. It felt so sneakily personal, in the way that the best poems do. So human, so female, molecular, large - lots of things simultaneously.

Definitely recommend it if you love a good collection of poems.
