Review # 1 was written on 2011-03-22 00:00:00 Jos Smit I just couldn't connect with this text. In some poems there would be a tiny spark in the enjambment or repetition or word choice, but never enough power to make it memorable.

Review # 2 was written on 2007-09-11 00:00:00 Margaret Cooper Lovely, heartbreaking, exquisite. I am, as I always am after Jarrell, reeling and half-blind. "If just living can do this, Living is more dangerous than anything." and, of course: "That the boy putting groceries in my car see me. It bewilders me he doesn't see me. For so many years I was good enough to eat: the world looked at me And its mouth watered. How often they have undressed me, The eyes of strangers!"
