American Melancholy: Poems by Joyce Carol Oates

1.0

I randomly picked it up at the library so maybe I wasn’t as committed to it as I should’ve been but, I couldn’t finish it. The writing just wasn’t my style. It was too direct, and for a poetry collection, not poetic enough. If I would’ve finished it, I would’ve given it 2 stars. Would be a good poetry book for somebody not into poetry.
