"'At the time of have-not, I look at myself in this mirror," writes Olds in this self-scouring ... volume, which opens with a section of quarantine poems, and at its center boasts what she calls Amherst balladz (whose syntax honors Emily Dickinson: 'she was our Girl - our Woman - / Man enough - for me'), and many more in her own contemporary, long-flowing-sentence rhythm, in which she sings of her childhood, young womanhood, and old age all mixed up together, seeing an early lover in the one who is about to buried; seeing her white privilege without apology; seeing her mother; ... seeing how we've spoiled the earth but carrying a stray indoor spider carefully back out to the garden. It is Sharon's gift to us that in her richly detailed exposure of her sorrows she can still elegize songbirds, her true kin, and write that heaven comes here in life, not after it"--mehr
