Reviews

Cormac McCarthy once opined that he wrote few women characters because he did not understand them. Misty Cosgrove's poetry provides the voices that McCarthy's novels lack, while providing a similar aesthetic. Each poem has a great sense of time and place, but still manages to tap into the universal. Misty provides us with a litany of grotesqueries and casual atrocities, but never fails to provide some hope scraped from the bottom of the barrel. I can think of no one better suited to provide empathy for both martyrs and monsters, and isn't that what literature is for?
