Myth & Cityscape,
By
This review is from: Artemis in Echo Park: Poetry (Paperback)
This collection of poetry explores the mythical territory between nature and city, between animal and human, between contemporary culture and timeless rituals. The range of these poems is remarkable, from a moment at a restaurant in "Chinois," to a contemplation of motherhood and childlessness in "Wild Mothers," and "Artemis," to political testimony in "Toltecs" and "From Los Angeles Looking South," or homage to sexuality in "Cactus Girls." The poet lives in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, and her poems celebrate a sense of being alive in this particular landscape-a place of arroyo, billboard, rattlesnake, automobile-that is constantly changing, even in the space of an evening's drive from one place to another.

This review is from: Artemis in Echo Park: Poetry (Paperback)
Healy has not only lived in Echo Park for a number of years, she has a strong local and literary following for her evocative writings. "Artemis in Echo Park" truly brings forth the magic and mystery of this place.
