Summary: | "Kirun Kapur's second collection, Women in the Waiting Room, was a finalist for the National Poetry Series. "From crushed bodies and crushed nouns, Kirun Kapur has composed an utterly original book. Unsparing, un-selfpitying, these poems make an imaginative whole from Hindu mythology, confessions from a hotline for sexual abuse, meditations on a friend's mortal illness, and the poet's private pain. Kapur makes a masterful style from the edges of experience where 'the soul, whatever it is, struggles to articulate."--Rosanna Warren."--provided by publisher. |
