I saw Ms. Anderson read a week or so ago (via Zoom) and was enthralled with her poetry. She writes about life, and does not sugar-coat it. These poems are honest, confessional, and it is very difficult to read just one.

 

From Paterfamilias  “may your daughters labour with language, / give birth to books that punctuate / the end of your line.” As for The Last Supper with Sarah, all I can say is, Sarah should count her blessings she’s still alive and walking. 

 

I truly wish the book was longer. I will go back to this book time and time again.
