It’s summer, and that means reviewing poetry collections for Mom Egg Review! The most recent review – We Became Summer, by Amy Barone – is now up.
It turns out that 750 words is not much when it comes to a thorough analysis of or even simple response to a full-length collection of poems. But if it is enough to help readers filter through the many options to match their interests to the offerings, then it is a job well-done.
An inviting review Sarah. I always like poetry reviews that quote!
Thanks, Philippa. It seems like the only way to go. My words aren’t going to provide a sense to the reader of another’s style. The old poetic saw, “Show, don’t tell” seems to apply! Take good care.
