A review by tashrikas
Selected Poems by William Carlos Williams

A majority of the work feels laborious in finding meanings within the architectural settings that William Carlos Williams sets up through collage. The line breaks help break down time into a meditative quality similar to building up an impressionistic painting. It felt like he could break up the full second it takes to observe and name an object into half a second and thus progressively more infinitesimal - but by the end of each poem I felt drained, I had been experiencing a range of intimate emotions throughout the span of the minutes reading.
