Review # 1 was written on 2018-09-05 00:00:00 Marcia Earley went in with hopes of learning, got one or two things before i got a. just really, really bored and b. tired of the constant framing of living (albeit endangered) poetic traditions as "primitive" because they're...oral and done by brown people i guess

Review # 2 was written on 2014-07-17 00:00:00 Marc Russell One of the most important books about modern poetry around, chasing the origin of the genre back to earlier but equally sincere and equally playful uses, then connected with religion and magic. This is what Robert Graves didn't know he was trying to say. No poet should be without it.
