lattelibrarian 's review for:

Cannibal by Safiya Sinclair

4.0

---

Sinclair's whole outlook and composition is absolutely beautiful, from the production of the book down to the results of her editing process.  Her themes, the way she elicits such emotions, the references from Shakespeare to everyday occurrences--they're all beautiful, wonderful, magical.  This is a poetry book definitely worth reading (despite the fact that it'll probably get you some weird stares on the metro).  This book is just as evocative as it is sentimental.
