The Undressing: Poems by Li-Young LeeMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I can't say enough about how much I liked this poetry collection, in fact reading some of them aloud made me sob my eyes out. That's how deep and emotionally affecting they are, but not in an Instagram poetry way. This is the real stuff.
The poems are about desire, belonging, and family. My favorites are "Love Succeeding" and "Sandalwood," but the longer title poem is pretty unforgettable.
I need to go back and read his earlier work!
I had an eARC from the publisher and the title is out February 20, 2018.
