This review is from: Here's to High Heels: Canadian Prarie Poems (Paperback)
This book is a collection not destined to become a classic - most of the poetry is enjoyable but only a few poems are inspired. One that is inspired is the title poem "Here's to High Heels': "Here's to all the others / who dance in high-heeled shoes / (not many of us left) / Betty Grable died today, " ...."Rent us a dance hall / with strenuous floor / over the garage / with red wire gas pumps / ...The author's drawings which accompany the poems indicated a wickedly delightful sense of humor - "pianos I have known" is a personal favorite. Much of the poetry is the tough, hard-life rural poetry one expects from Seven Buffaloes Press. But these are also the poems of an intelligent, artistic woman - at home with Miro as well. In short don't stereotype Patricia Elliot, she writes from a very broad base of experience and interessts. |
