5.0 out of 5 stars Ah! The Best, The Fiercest, August 10, 2007

By	Jared Stanley "scum4000" (Oakland, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: About Now: Collected Poems (Paperback)

Joanne Kyger's poetry is the best. So Californian! Her sense of the immediate, and her deep mirth (even when writing elegies for friends and writers) are a tonic against overly theoretical (or, overly slack) poetry. She's also accessible, and not in an annoying way, like Billy Collins or whatever, that boring type of poetry. Her materials are familiar, but her concerns are eternal.
