- Reading from a poetry collection I fell in love with last year. There may be more readings from this book to come.
Published by Boa Editions in 1997 as the 18th volume in their "New Poets of America" series, these postwar Europe-inflected poems are often scenes from memories crystalized in language.
Thanks for this spotlight on a poet I was not familiar with, love the collection title, so much fabulous poetry.
Sad and gripping. I haven't read her. She does seem to have a gift for finding beauty in the tragic--or in spite of it.
I am relieved I got through "Leak Street" because my eyes were tearing up. I had read it probably a hundred times between discovering the book a year ago and making the video earlier today and it is actually more difficult to withhold the leakage.
@@TheBookedEscapePlan The impact of reading a poem out loud sometimes catches me off guard as well.
The use of juxtaposition is startling, isn't it?
I agree, especially in the unexpected ones which pop up across the book as a whole, as opposed to the ones which appear at the level of the individual poems.
@@TheBookedEscapePlan: I have just uploaded a video on Sylvia Plath, so really enjoy this confessional poetic of vulnerability & fractured states of mind. Thanks for this.
