Yes, all 504 pages of it! Wait... actually it is a never ending book.
I'm referring to I Take Thee, English, for My Beloved by Eileen R. Tabios and published by March Hawk Press.
I am hardly qualified to tell you much about it yet as I have only skimmed through it. But I can tell you that Tabios in this book appears to remain the every consummate poet. Resourcefully creating pliant work intending the reader to participate in the experience. She is so straight forward about that. That I find refreshing.
I will pack this for night time reading this weekend while at an Iowa writing retreat. I think it will make an excellent bedside companion.
When I feel I am able to discuss the book in more detail, you may expect much more in depth commentary on it.
