Jane Miller's Best, May 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Memory at These Speeds: New & Selected Poems (Paperback)
"Memory at These Speeds: New and Selected Poems" is the best introduction to Jane Miller's amazing genius. Her intellect, passion and raw edge swoop, swing and jump through this generous collection of poems that work hard at the business of love, truth and the absolute. Despite the frantic, white-knuckled pace, these poems have been distilled into ever more dense detonations. Jane Miller will shock you, and she's not scared to lose the reader at points; but one is left in the end with the tangible sense that these poems respect the reader. Truly, to have this much Jane Miller in one collection is a wonderful value and a genuine treat. She's not just working on the cutting edge of poetry--she IS the edge, and once you get a taste of the power and sheer life force packed into these pages, you'll be a fan for life.
