I'm a quarter of the way through this book and it is SO intriguing and original. Loving it.

Drew me in slowly

This was my first time reading any of Berry's work and initially I found the sheer 'American-ness' of his poems placed me at a slight distance from them somehow? As I progressed through the book though, I started to feel an underlying theme of place and timelessness that drew me in. One thing that I found charming was that throughout the book there were poems dedicated to friends and friendship; such tokens of appreciation for male friendships are so rare.
