Monument: Poems New and Selected by Natasha Trethewey
4.0
Not a big fan of poetry or poetry collections. I was assigned this book for a creative writing class (historical fiction) and enjoyed it. I especially like how the author weaves her own life into poems she was inspired to write by a painting or a photograph or a moment in history.
Favorite line: “because of the way you left me: how suddenly a simple errand, a letter — everything — can go wrong.”
