The Exiles’ Gallery – Elise Partridge | Mary W. Walters: Book Reviews
https://marywwaltersbookreviews.wordpress.com/2015/05/03/the-exiles-gallery-elise-partridge
Mary W. Walters: Book Reviews. The Exiles’ Gallery Elise Partridge. The Exiles’ Gallery. House of Anansi Press. The Exiles’ Gallery. Covers a lot of territory, in geography and time, but also in poetic style. Partridge’s poems are so finely fashioned but seem so simple and straightforward that it’s not until the second reading that you think, “Hey, there’s an almost-rhyme in the first and last line here”…. There’s one tied to a fence. By a rancher yearning for shade. Lashed to a mall’s arch. May 3, 2015.

https://marywwaltersbookreviews.wordpress.com/2015/04/27/for-whom-do-the-poets-write-if-not-for-me-2
Mary W. Walters: Book Reviews. For Whom Do the Poets Write, If Not for Me? Essays and Reviews on Poetry and Culture. I admired the cover of a newly released book on Facebook, and to my surprise I received a copy in the mail from the publisher no charge, no strings attached. This was the source of my dilemma:. Is a book about poetry a field in which I have no credentials, aside from my deep and long-standing admiration for well-crafted products of the art form. To make matters worse, this is not a book.
