Book Reviews of Plainwater: Essays and Poetry
Book Review: Carson's Best
Summary: 4 Stars
This is Carson's best work, a meditation on loss and longing that outweighs her more popular works. Here in this early work you can find the foundations of form that inspired the young and daring prose stylists Ben Marcus, John D'Agata and David Wallace. Worth it on virtually every page.
