A selection of poems written and read by Margaret Atwood. This has the feel of a collection written late in life, there is a sense of the passing of years, of a handing on of responsibility and grief at loss. And yet there is also vibrancy in here, there is anger at the state of the world and what we have done to our planet and a railing at the body;s inability to carry on when the mind is willing. Divided into 5 themed section, the last is the most obviously regretful, but that is where the love lives. The Invisible Man particularly. While told at a sedate pace, I wonder if reading these and being able to mull over each one would have made for an even more satisfactory reading experience. (

Winter 2020 (December);

I stalked and then preordered this from the second I heard that after two decades Atwood was releasing a new poetry book. This year took me a little while to get to reading it, after the book arrived, but I decided to make sure to finish out before the year ended and it was absolutely worth it. I loved every poem in this book and it was so moving to listen to her reading her own poetry, using emphasis and softness where she meant them to be. (

This enjoyable but melancholy collection of Atwood's poetry features mostly short lines which I generally prefer. An interesting poem group offered thoughts on murdered sisters. I wondered what inspired these poems. She also offered a series of poems about environmental dangers, particular plastic. Many poems reflected on the past. The poem describing to a younger generation how Polaroid cameras worked amused me. I still remember the awe I had as a child watching those photos develop right before my eyes. (

Were some verses and lines written well? It's Margaret Atwood, so of course. Overall, however, the poems were too depressing. I couldn't get into it. (
