The Renunciations: Poems by Donika Kelly
3.0
slow-paced

 
This short work of poetry is an interesting but complicated read. I am not a poetry person and find that most of the time to my mind it’s gibberish. I think I understand the overall story is about a character and then their history with their father, his wife, dying, living, who’s, who, etc. I read this to fill a reading challenge prompt and while I can’t say I enjoyed it, I can say it was a different experience that I am happy to have broadened my usual reading habits.
