Beloved Idea

This brave and remarkable debut functions as one long poem and achieves extension through Stein-like repetition, and meaning through accretion and excess. In seeking a metaphorical ideal, Ann Killough's struggle to write is a struggle to understand her feelings for her nation--a process akin to a mother learning that her child is a murderer, a truth from which there can be no refuge or respite.
