The Descent of Alette

Alice Notley’s thoughts on this book: &quot;I love to write long poems, to be utterly involved in a particular poem as a way of living a life.&quot; Couldn’t have said it better myself. After <em>The Battlefield where the Moon Says I Love You,</em> this is by far my favorite book of poetry. Alice Notley is pure genius and there’s some really great reading available on the net.
