Hurricane Party | Alison Pelegrin

1 post | 1 read

Hurricane Party is an original and rewarding work, a masterful follow-up to Big Muddy River of Stars, and a livewire, compelling contribution to American poetry. No other poet sounds like Pelegrin, and that's the sure sign of a writer at the top of her game."Elton Glaser

Hurricane Party | Alison Pelegrin

so-so

This was my first read by the new poet laureate of Louisiana and I wanted to love this one. But it just didn't really resonate with me. There's a lot of emotion in these poems, a great deal of anger, but they lack lyricism. This is earlier work from Pelegrin, so I'm sure I'll return to her in the future.
