I love, love, love sestinas. The skill of the artist tackling poetry in a very specific way. “Beautiful Poetry” was a delight. A book of poetry sprinkled with humor is always welcome on our shelf.Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I can't say this book was my favorite volume of modern poetry, but there were passages that were timely, raw, and personal. Guthrie is as honest as she is forthright, and if you're into that sort of thing, go for it. If you're not, go for it anyway -- this one still has fun moments. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Not usually what I pick up and read but appreciated the author’s honesty about where she was in her life experience and the growth and changes she was going through. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Good poems, some of which evoked feeling in me, others which fell flat. I would recommend it.

Diamonds presents a woman in midlife on the edge. In hilarious and heartbreaking poems, Camille Guthrie writes about the trials and surprises of divorce, parenting, country life--and the difficulties and delights of being alone, looking at art, and falling in love. Witty resilience abounds in these irreverent poems about grief and desire--in which the poet meditates upon gender roles, history, pop culture, and academia. Guthrie subverts and teases traditional forms in an elegy about Sylvia Plath's prom dress, a dating profile for Hieronymus Bosch, a sestina about beauty and power--with radical dramatic monologues in the voices of Madame du Barry, a Pict Woman, and more. Unlike Virgil, who refuses to guide this poet through her journey at midlife, Guthrie leads readers by the hand into a provoking, affecting journey of a break-up and a reconciliation with love.
