Jenna Butler draws on her own experiences of her grandmother's
disappearance into senile dementia to reassemble a sensual world in
longpoem form that positively crackles with imagery and rhythm.
Identities and memories flow and flicker as she strings together
fragments of narrative into stories that comprise one woman's life.
It entwines her disappearing life with that of the persona of the
woman's granddaughter through a choreographed confusion of
identities: of she's and I's. Few poets could execute this with
convincing solemnity, while simultaneously recovering the dignity
of the sufferer and her loved ones. Butler does. Poetry lovers,
critics and scholars, and readers who crave a deft style charged
with honest emotion should read Wells.
