Review # 1 was written on 2008-09-21 00:00:00 Manuel P�rez Palomo Reminiscent of Sylvia Plath's violently creative poetry, this anthology is written by a professor at St. Thomas college in St. Paul. I think I was one of the besieged pink-and-green haired youths at the concert in Loring Park which she describes in one of the earlier pieces, Babes in Toyland. I chose to memorize her poem entitled Blood Oranges to recite as an exercise in one of Jim Heynen's poetry classes at St. Olaf. Warning: it's pretty dark. Other favorites include Autumnal, Lawn Ornaments, Your Window on the Wannsee is Closed, Asia, Gacela of Departed Love, and of course, Blood Oranges.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-05-26 00:00:00 Nathan Weber Very mythical. Creating his own mythology in North Carolina. I lost my patience with some of the poems, but even then I couldn't ignore the beautiful images and the stark concrete details. Not to shabby.
