| I loved this book! I finished it on my solo roadtrip, and it's what helped me come home to Seth. I appreciated her concept of the "trance of unworthiness" and how we can be flattened and flatten other people (even those close to us) when we are strug ...more | |

| What a remarkable book, an even more remarkable first book of poems. These poems were full of longing and haunting detail as well as restraint. There is such a tension between desire and how the speaker talks about it. I'm still thinking about the la ...more | |

| It was wonderful to read this after learning about the construction of some of these poems in Smith's book Dear Writer. I need to buy this one and refer back to it the next time I put a collection together. I loved it. ...more | |

I loved this beautiful book. It was a good choice to bring with me on my first solo retreat, at Holy Wisdom monastery, this May. Merton was an unusual voice in Catholicism, and this book reverberated with Tara Brach's Radical Acceptance and Mary Oliv ...more |
