Review # 2 was written on 2009-06-02 00:00:00 Moony Zarazki Reading "early" collections of poems allows you to see the development of the young poet towards the more mature (sometimes). This collection of Adrienne Rich's does that in a compelling fashion--good, solid, academic-based poems turning toward the freer, more uniquely voiced. From 1969 ("Night in the Kitchen"): "You will become a black lace cliff fronting a deadpan sea;/ nerves, friable as lightning/ ending in burnt pine forests".
