レビュー

• Carolyn Forche, a rare writer exploring into her own genuine territory, crawling through it in a passion to finger the real mysterium living in the sub-text psychic metaview. Mixed in results but who isn't, or wouldn't be, if we were to make a like journey?

• Rereading Forche's Angel of History years later it still sings as it did when it first came out. Maybe a tiny bit out of tune in some ways. But Forche's poems have a way of staying with one for a long time. I took away a star because I loved it more when it first came out then I did on a recent read. My fault, not the poet's. Give it back the star if you want. When I read it again, I no doubt will.

• Versand hat sehr lange gedauert (fast drei Wochen, ohne Sendungsverfolgung). Gedichte an sich nur etwas für Poesie-Liebhaber, die sich ausführlicher damit beschäftigen möchten. Leider (aus Umweltsicht) große Platz-/Papierverschwendung, da die Seiten sehr wenig bedruckt sind. Hängt natürlich mit der Wirkung der Gedichte zusammen, aber trotzdem nicht ganz durchdacht (als Entschuldigung, das Buch ist schon alt).

• Not so much into poetry I saw the author speak on a special about the Statue of Liberty & felt like giving one a try. Worth it.

• This book is full of symbolism, and while the syntax and rhythm are just a bit hard to follow, I love the meaning behind the words. An excellent book, but not for you if you're not up for reading between the lines to find the true meaning of it all.
