The White Junk of Love, Again

by Sibyl James

Poetry. In these translitics of the sonnets of sixteenth century poet Louise Labe, James's contemporary voice allows Labe's struggle with passion and eroticism to surface with new life. "James creates a jazzy, tough-minded voice that is easy to imagine as that of an avant-garde poet of 1550 transported to the late 20th century"--Seattle Times.
