The Real West Marginal Way: A Poets Autobiography

Ive never really liked poetry, but i liked his as well as the autobiography because I could understand it. What he wrote was what he meant it was like you had to decipher it. I could picture everything he meant as I read it and was familiar to where he was talking about. I liked how when he wrote he went to the river, it makes sense to me going to a place like that where it is peaceful, not in the crazy area he lived in at the time. He was still able to go there, reflect and write poetry about his home and life. He is a great writer/poet and I enjoyed reading it.

Based on what you've said here, I really encourage you to check out more of Richard Hugo's poetry. It's plainspoken and down-to-earth, with a simple everyday beauty that particularly emerges when it's read aloud. His collection "The Lady in Kicking Horse Reservoir" is a good place to start. Let me know what you think.
