This is one of the more disturbing and disgusting books of poetry I've ever read. Still, Reines's verve and Steinian wit are keeping me going. ** Update: I find myself resistant to the process part of this book (not a section but a strand). I know the project--put the flesh back on the bones, acknowledge the mess, etc--and Reines even addresses the reader's unwillingness directly--but to address is not to convince, still less to impel. I'm just not going with it. . . I can't help thinking that the project of redirtying the house of literature just takes us in a circle. . . Still, all books/works fail; I like that this one tries (and then there's Reines's talent to consider, too). I'll certainly look at her next.

Fur bowls!

Definately my favorite deaver book.
