Review: Ledger: Poems

Ledger: Poems  by  Jane Hirshfield My rating:  4 of 5 stars A bit uneven in places where some poems feel like exercises, this is still another worth collection by one of my favorite poets, Jane Hirshfield. She has the ability to weave image, autobiography, nature, politics, and philosophy with just the right words. View all my reviews
