Summary: I've seen her read...
Comment: Despite some readership's lack of comprehension for the genuis that is Sharon Olds, I am a believer in her as art and artist. I've seen her read (at Oklahoma State University) and was held in awe by her delivery and the new poems she read to the audience. I respect her as a poet, a woman, an artist, an honest voice to depict real-life horror. Poetry is not an artifact for a reader to condemn (or praise too highly). Just observe, open yourself to the experience, and be contently uncomfortably (or uncomfortably content) in the reactions churning within yourself.

Summary: Proof that people don't understand good poetry
Comment: I could be reviewing any of Olds' books and it wouldn't matter. They are all dreadful. The woman cannot break a line. Why does she feel the need to break her lines at "a" and "the"? Not only that, she is a very LAZY poet filled with cliches and absolute self-obsession. I do not care about her bodily functions. How boring! I once saw online a guy who called her "5th rate Sylvia Plath 40 years too late." And I think that about sums it up.
Rating: 5
Summary: Great work
Comment: Sharon Olds does not disappoint. This is my new favorite book!
