Default Review of Sally Thomas's "Motherland"

My review of Sally Thomas's new poetry collection, published by Able Muse Press earlier this year, is posted at Amazon: here .

Many Sphereans no doubt already know Thomas's poetry, which is sometimes metrical/rhyming or off-rhyming, and sometimes not. If you don't, as the review says, I recommend it.

I read it, Andrew. A good review that makes me want to read the book.

I'm so glad that Sally's book is out. It was among the many anonymized manuscripts I read for the Richard Wilbur Award & rose to the select single digits. It was withdrawn (thanks to the good taste of Able Muse in offering to publish it) while judging was still under way, but Motherland was among the collections that really knocked me out. Congratulations, Sally, and, Andrew, great job with the review.

An excellent review, Andrew, and one that has made me put the book in my cart to purchase as a treat in the coming weeks!
