Ararat –by Louise Glück

Nonfiction / Poetry
68 pages
5 Stars

May I double the star rating? Make it an even 10 stars? Yes, the book is that good.

The poems are serious, thought-provoking, contain pain, but also shards of piercing sunlight. The sunlight is needed to see more clearly into the shadows.

This is a book about family, about loss, about beauty, about memory.

My introduction to Ms. Glück, and by far not the only book of hers I will read and enjoy.
