A modest success
Thunderbird by Jane Miller
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
In “Thunderbird,” Jane Miller writes a series of poems linked by last line and title and a kind of stream of consciousness rendering of what seem to be stories she has been told as well as her own experiences. She often juxtaposes seemingly unrelated images and tries to rehabilitate stake expressions by their introduction into these juxtapositions. Overall, the book is a modest success; but sometimes the effort is strained. For this reader at least, the emotion did not always feel real or earned by the getting to it.
