Confronting AIDS Through Literature: The Responsibilities of Representation
It is a commonplace that poetry anthologies are uneven, and so do I find this book. However, I am well aware that the poems I like the least are likely to be the poems that others like the most. I find the work very strong, overall, and mostly well focused on the subject. I think having such a strong subject helps the poets keep their poems on something that interests me, and no doubt that contributes to my warm feeling towards this book. Some barely mention the response figure, and most of those are the poems I like the least. Too many are really about a certain painting of Ophelia, and not about Shakespeare's Ophelia - I'm on to you. But on balance, this is a very nice collection.
