Title: The Impossible Read
Review: The last reviewer had it right. And what's with the cover? It's further proof that the marketing machine is in high gear on this one, hoping to bank on the multi-culti angle. You don't see Mark Doty's mug on the cover of his books, or Philip Levine's on his. And a great poet like Lucille Clifton, who also happens to be multicultural, doesn't need her photo on the cover; the work is good enough without the additonal hard-sell. The fact is, Castillo's poems are dreadful, and the marketing department needed an angle. I can hardly wait to see the cover of her next volume. I suspect she'll be riding a horse.
