I've never left a review here before, but I feel compelled to on this one. I first discovered Adrienne Rich through a college class (focused on 20th century works by women), and at first I did groan a bit, not being a real avid fan of poetry. But I ended up reading this book in it's near entirety before the class even began. The first poem I randomly flipped open to was one of the 21 love poems, I believe, and it made me cry the first time I read it (and probably all the subsequent times as well). There's something about Adrienne Rich's poetry that just reached out and touched me in a very profound way, and I don't mean to sound all snobby or whatever, I just can't explain how much her poetry has meant to me. Because of this volume (and the others I rushed out to buy after finishing this one) I was finally able to put a name on something I'd been dealing with for over 2 years, which I hadn't ever been able to describe before.

There's just something about Rich's poetry that forces us to more closely examine ourselves and the people around us, to re- asses what our lives mean. I would have given this book 10 stars if I could, and I really can't recommend it enough. Even non- fans of poetry, as I was, may find themselves hooked by her words. I wish I could thank the poet in person for what she's given me.

I have only read the first few pages, but I find Todd Gitlin's accusations that CURE was hypersensitive to bigotry unconvincing in virtually every instance, poorly thought through, and lend support to the worst forms of racism/bigotry which persist in full bloom today...Phil Ochs'sarcastic "Love Me I'm a Liberal" seems to have been written to criticize trains of thought such as those in Gitlin's opening pages...The book may offer some helpful insights elsewhere, and some solid, detailed history of recent times, but I am going to try to spend my limited time reading things that seem more respectful of others and truly inspired...
