What I’ve been reading

I’ve been on a real Sandra Cisneros kick lately. I just re-read Loose Woman (one of my all-time favorite collections), I’ll be starting Woman Hollering Creek sometime this week, and I have My Wicked Wicked Ways on order.

Shannon Hardwick has a beautiful chapbook out. It makes me jealous that I don’t live in the desert.

I’ve been enjoying the work of my fellow poets participating in Pulitzer Remix.

Salon has a cool article on contronyms.

    Allyson,
    Have you read “The House on Mango Street.”
    It’s one of my favorites.

      I actually haven’t. I’ve only read her poetry. That will change soon, though. 🙂
