CD Reviews

Marvellous opportunity

Maria Leticia Del Garca | Spain | 12/08/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"For those who love Susan Howe's poetry this is really a great opportunity to listen to this author reading aloud some of her poems accompanied by a really good musical composition. It is a different way of approaching poetry, not just read it on the page but listening to it as what it is: an artistict composition to be represented."
