    <![CDATA[Katha Pollitt writes that these are &quot;extraordinarily accomplished and beautiful poems.&quot; Pinsky is a respected critic and translator and, as a poet, is a genius of sound and lineation. He also excels at the startling image, as when he describes a brain as &quot;humming to itself, / Like a fat person eating M&amp;Ms in the bathtub.&quot; The vividness of the image grabs our attention even as its poignancy and cruel edge complicate the tone of this intricate poem (&quot;History of My Heart&quot;). An impressive and moving collection.]]>
