Books Read in the Past:

Greece.

This is the best of Broumas's poetry, though I imagine Adrienne Rich would find in its tightness a certain distance of the self. Broumas's later volumes range from structurally loose to experimental, some seeming to be more focused on the sounds of the poems while others are more accessible in their content.

This volume won the Yale Series of Younger Poets award.
