stunning first collection June 16, 2001 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I came across Addonizio's poetry purely by accident. I had never heard of her (actually, i remember seeing her name on the poet's companion, but i had never read her poetry), and i ran across her at a reading in west chester, pa. and i was stunned by it. i picked up philosopher's club, and wasn't dissapointed. the poems inside are sensual poems that radiate sexuality. she works just as well in formal verse as she does in free verse. it is hard to believe that this is her first collection. there is nothing like hearing her read her work, the sensuality of the poems truly comes out when she is reading, but since you can't have her reading every day (unless she comes out with a spoken word cd- we can always hope), this collection should be purchased, and to truly experience the poems, read out loud to yourself.
I waited to long October 16, 1999 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I can't believe I waited this long to read this book. Addonizio is an incredible poet . I came upon this book by chance at a used book store and was blown away. I read the first few poems in the store and knew I had to have it. So will you

Addonizio has triumphed. This book of poetry is exciting and fresh. Ms. Addonizio is a brilliant writer and those who skip this masterpeice are truly missing something great. Can you tell I liked it? Buy it borrow it do whatever you have to just READ IT!
