One Secret Thing. Sharon Olds by Sharon Olds

back again, Sharon returns in 2008 from a bit of a lull, a hiatus. It's not one of her landmarks but it is characteristically very good, especially! the opening poem, Everything.. it's interesting to see how it came about, more of a 'problem' collection in taking the One Big thing - death of her mother - and working through. Title poem is gorgeous & horrifying in one, as you'd hope
