I finally finished this behemoth of a poetry collection! After 700 pages, I‘ve also finally finished all the books on the National Book Award shortlist for poetry. This one won the award, but it is my least favorite of the five. While there were many poems here that I loved, I also found many, particularly the earlier poems, much less accessible than the contemporary poetry from the other collections on the shortlist.
I have read all of the poetry collections from this year‘s National Book Award short list except this one. Of course, this is the one that won. It is far more lengthy than the others since it covers over 50 years of his work. Starting today with hopes to finish this month.
