Right now I'm working on an advance reading copy of Natasha Tretheway's new collection, Monument,and it's excellent. She writes a lot about her family and race and gender, and how the two intertwine. A lot of the poems read like stories, but there're a lot of interesting metaphors and motifs. I guess what I'm saying is that they're accessible, anyone can understand what she's saying, but there's also a lot to analyze in the subtext if you're into that (which I am).
