Mary Meriam Review
Hello folks!
My review of Mary's wonderful new book has been published in Entropy. They Americanised my spelling but I'm preparing myself to forgive them. Yaay!

Mary - you're more than welcome. This is the first review I've written, apart from all the ones I daydream in my head for my favourite films and albums and books (does anyone else do this?) so it's a thrill that it was published and a privilege that it was for your poetry.
Nemo and Susan - thank you!

Congratulations to all!
Mark, think of the ink saved, and thus the carbon footprint reduced, by Americanising (sic) you English! ~,:^)

I lapped this up, Mark. To my mind, good literary criticism makes me appreciate the discussed work all the more; this being no exception. Respect!

Great review Mark. Congratulations Mary.
You say at the outset that Mary's poems puts the reader in a place that "is and it isn’t." The exhilarating effect of that dichotomy puts me in a place of great pleasure. I bought the book today.
