Review Notes from the Ward
Share
Notes from the Ward, was reviewed by Gillian Harding-Russell
on The British Columbia Review.
Gillian says of the collection “I was struck by the moments of gaiety and love for life and
other humans who perhaps do not always reach the same height and depth of
feeling as the speaker with her bipolar affliction...One of the most skillful poems in the collection is perhaps Notes from the Ward #11,” in which the speaker on seeing a police car out the ward window finds a metaphysical analogy in herself...There is self-knowledge and recognition of her own weaknesses in this poem that so adroitly uses typographically-expressive spacing."
