Guillotine

Body. I selected Eduardo Corral’s poetry collection titled, Guillotine, from the longlist of the 2020 National Book Award for Poetry. His descriptions of the Sonoran Desert, tragedy, and grief are breathtaking. He selects words that form the body and presents the human condition with poignant insight. I realized after spending time with this collection that I just don’t read enough poetry and will continue to add more poems to my reading queue. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase Guillotine from amazon.com.
