The Best First Collection of Poems Published This Decade

I have never in my life picked up a collection of poems in a bookstore and could not put it down until I had finished reading it, that is until I encountered this book of poems by Sidney Wade. This book is, quite frankly, stunning. Ms. Wade writes with an elegance and grace that gives one goosebumps. Reading this collection, it is hard to ignore that Ms. Wade is an heir to Wallace Stevens. If there is one first book of poems you need to read, it is this one. I predict we will be seeing much more from Sidney Wade in the future
