Review: ‘Curiosity’ by Patrick Whitfill

who can we expect to care for us if we cannot care for each other?

Review: ‘I Ask My Sister’s Ghost’ by Benjamin Gucciardi

A pretty book of heavy poems, written with tenderness and great skill.

I think the rhyming of cotillions and bazillions is where the spirit left my body.

I felt a lot of empathy for this collection.

It’s one long poem, but it’s also like shucking 21 oysters.

A tactile and visual pleasure in terms of type, art, and finish.

“In the gentle breeze he thinks he can discern the light smell of the lilac taking over, for just an instant, the heavy smell of gas.”
