The Descent of Alette by Alice Notley
5.0
Alice Notley: how did you know what was happening down in my subconscious/meditation/dream space? How did you dare write a book as unhinged and deep-down as this?
This is a book of poetry about killing the Tyrant. If you are a revolutionary, read this before Marx or Mao, because I think it takes the possibility of emancipation more seriously than they did. Also: it has beautiful snakes.
