Blood, Sparrows and Sparrows by Eugenia Leigh
5.0
While a little rougher around the edges than "Bianca" and slightly more prone to self-flagellation, "Blood, Sparrows and Sparrows" is a masterpiece in its own right.
I sobbed through the entire latter half, and I was in awe of how Eugenia Leigh built poems out of the broken religious language that often breaks us. In particular, the title poem was really resonant, and the collection is worth reading simply for that.
This book is gorgeous, and I feel so lucky to be able to read it.
