Wild Beauty: New and Selected Poems
by Ntozake Shange
I had trouble focusing on this collection. There didn’t see me to be a unifying theme and the style was a bit inaccessible. I felt like my reading would have been enhanced if I had read it in a college English class, where we could discuss the meaning line by line. As it was I found some lines really powerful, but caught myself skimming rather than reading a lot. I think that is a reflection of the type of poetry I prefer (straightforward, minimalist) more than anything else.
