review 1: I was on the train home from Manhattan earlier today and read this once over in the 50 minutes that I had. The entire book is genius. The poetry is seamless, and by the end I was so touched that I started to cry, quietly, in the little train carriage. I haven't been moved this much by something in a very long time. This book found me at such a perfect time. I was just starting to forget why I loved poetry so much.
review 2: This is so gorgeous and so sad and so open and inviting. The title poem is an A to Z index of her 6 years with the poet Craig Arnold, who vanished while hiking a volcano in Japan. Reading this makes me want to live a fuller life, because you never know when the most important things (or people) will disappear. You don't have to be a poetry e... morexpert to enjoy this book -- there are poems about Facebook status updates, for example -- but it will give you new appreciation for the form. less
