5.0 out of 5 stars The Cowardice of Amnesia rocked my world, March 19, 2000
This review is from: The Cowardice of Amnesia (Paperback)
Ellyn Maybe's voice is a unique combination of sincere compassion and an appreciation of the absurd. The message throughout is clear: be kind to your beautiful self, the rest will come easily. Inspirational, moving, not a word wasted. Though the poems are long, they don't feel long; they are economically crafted and free of cliche. The work is directly accessible--no academic snobbery whatsoever. Ellyn Maybe's voice will continue to be an important one for many generations.
