Becoming Light: Poems, New and Selected
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
Although she is most famous for her bestselling fiction, Erica Jong started her publishing career as a poet and has an international reputation for her verse. Becoming Light includes early poems previously uncollected in book form, selections from her previous books and many new poems. Erica Jong's poetry exhibits her rare gifts for inventiveness, wit, vigor, honesty and accessibility. Critics have generously praised Jong's unique poetic voice. Helen Vendler, writing in The New York Times Book Review, applauded her 'playful' metaphorical mind...busy in plentiful invention of little fables. Becoming Light is an important anthology, showcasing one of our most vital contemporary poets at the height of her formidable and varied powers.
