An inventive, creative, collection, the only disappointment I found in reading this collection was reaching the end too soon. Brevity aside, this collection is full of evocative, lyrical, bite sized, poems that attempt, and mostly succeed, at completely re-contexualizing some of the most famous world myths through a queer lens. The Fates, the primordial abyss before creation, The Flood, and Persephone, all get their due in this collection, each with their own wonderfully original musing.
Overall, this was an interesting read I quite enjoyed. I would be excited to read anything else this author creates.

I also enjoy when poets play with the space they're given, and Gold did that well without having to fall back on it. It was used for emphasis and it worked.
I enjoyed this read - it was a quick, read-in-one-sitting book that I'll be happy to read again!
