Editorial Review:
Reader Reviews for Amplitude: New and Selected Poems: Customer Rating: Summary: I never received this book. Comment: I ordered this book a month and a half ago and I still have not received it. Customer Rating: Summary: Poems Like Candles in the Darkness..... Comment: I have to admit that I began reading and collecting Ms. Gallagher's poetry at first because she was Raymond Carver's lover and his poetry had broken my heart and put it back together again too many times to count. I know, I know, just because a woman beds a man does not mean she absorbs his talent by some sort of literary osmosis, but still.....I was not disappointed and am overjoyed to have acquired this early book of her poetry. Her poems flow and float like clouds over a river with a gentle breeze blowing. I like this book even better than her later work. Each poet opens our eyes to a new world. It's a sort of rebirth. I highly recommend this book to all poetry lovers. Customer Rating: Summary: Swept Away! Comment: She has a voice I've never heard before that I've needed to hear for a long, long time. There is unflinching lucidity here and honesty. "Each Bird Walking" takes no prioners. "The Hug" is. "If Poetry Were Not a Morality" is my memory too. The Fireman from Brooklyn glitters with hard truth Customer Rating: Summary: A lovely book!!! Comment: This is one of my favorite books of poetry. Ms. Gallagher's style (phrasing, imagery) is very unique and her voice is both strong and delicate. You will not be disappointed with this book. Customer Rating: Summary: Powerful images, delicately written about Comment: This book is a collection of poems from "Under Stars," "Instructions to the Double," "Willingly," and several dozen new poems. It's lovely, a joy to read. My favorites are from "Under Stars," and the poem "Under Stars," is worth the price of the book itself. Tess Gallagher's poems are stunning and strong, with such delicate phrasing. A must-read if you enjoy poetry.
