By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Light In Hand: Selected Early Poems of Lola Ridge (Paperback)
Simply a compilation of the best early poems by poet, editor, and crusader of social justice in the early twentieth century Lola Ridge, "Light in Hand: Selected Early Poems of Lola Ridge" takes a selected few from her first three volumes of poetry: "The Ghetto and other Poems" "Sun-Up and Other Poems" and "Red Flag". Rich poems with a blend of political sensibility and deep spiritual belief make this a great read from start to finish. Highly recommended for poetry lovers and a great starter to community libraries in need of material by this grand author. The Fiddler: In a little Hungarian cafe/Men and women are drinking/Yellow wine in tall goblets//Through the milky haze of smoke/The fiddler, under-sized, blond/Leans to his violin/As to the breast of a woman/Red hair kindles to fire/On the black of his coat-sleeve/Where his white thin hand/Trembles and dives/Like a sliver of moonlight/When wind has broken the water.
