Summary: Passion , Heartbreak and Sex
Comment: I just love this book by regional poet Judyth Hill. She's a dynamic, fabulous performer of her own work. This review by Jessica English appeared in Weekly Alibi when the book fist came out in 1997. Men Need Space is now in its second printing. I say "get it while it's hot".
"This newest book from Judyth Hill-a Santa Fe performance poet-happens to be a collection of love poems. Nothing sappy. Hill's love poetry is hard-edged and real. She mocks marriage. She chronicles the aftermath of divorce. She writes about passion, heartbreak and sex with diverse imagery. Hill compares love to baseball; sex to paintings by Renoir; marriage to having diet Sprite and pork rinds in bed. Lengthy and straightforward titles seem to give her away before you even begin the first stanza, but Hill's poems are far more complex, often plunging into some sorrowful or bitter twist by the last stanza. And much of her poems are about poetry itself: the most passionate and torrid lover that any poet has. I ache still since finishing Men Need Space. I return to each stanza, each line that reminds me of myself. And that is the only measure I have for good poetry: the kind that invades your own heart."
