This review is from: Coming Back to the Body: Poems (Paperback)
Sutphen's Coming Back to the Body is a powerful yet gentle recollection of the author's past, beginning with life on the farm and meandering its way to her present state. As her tone and emphasis changes from page to page, you begin to develop a sense of the spectrum of her spiritual being. She takes you from childhood naivety, casually to heart wrenching loss and frustrating regret. What I found to be the most powerful in her writing was that at certain points in the book, one poem stands out as a crossroads for several previous threads that explodes with the depths of meaning one finds in Shakespeare. When you come across these poems, you will be very well aware of the author's genius. A beautiful and touching read.
