Book Reviews of Ka-Ching! (Pitt Poetry Series)
Book Review: Exposed
Summary: 5 Stars
Because the cover is bright and Ka-Ching has an exclamation point and the pig is even smiling, I assumed that this would, at the very least, be a fun collection to read and that I would see poems do things that I hadn't imagined poems could do because that's what Denise Duhamel does. This was much more than a fun read. This is a collection of poems that makes you trust it in its opening sections. You can trust that, just like you, Duhamel knows what it is to have a dream, to fear that dream, and to live the affirmation of a dream. In later sections of the collection, the necessity of that trust becomes clear when Duhamel makes you face a truth you fear--that sometimes horrible things happen to people we love and sometimes those people are your parents--but these poems are your trusted friends that affirm that you don't have to go it alone. I had no idea that this book would end up getting my highest form of involuntary praise: it made me cry. I still can't figure out how reading these poems actually made ME feel exposed. She's good!
