Kentucky Curdled is book of poetry with prose that is deep
and meaningful, which the author describes in great detail in the essay portion
of the her work. Each of the poems reflects on the strange death of a young
community member.
The author uses a different style of poetry based on the format, rhyme scheme
and subject matter, including short sentences, short phrases, and
rhyme. The unusual layout in certain poems lends a thought provoking style that
Tamara Madison executes perfectly.
I especially liked the “essay” at the end which describes
the reason for the different type of poetry layout.
This was a quick read as well. You could finish it in a few
hours but may want to revisit it again because there is a lot of meaning and
hidden truths involved. Definitely a treasured purchase.
