Reviews
Sharon Olds's poetry has the intensity and power to move the reader, whether her subject be personal family life or political events., "InSatan Says, Sharon Olds convincingly, and with astonishing vigor, presents a world which, if not always hostile, is never clear about which face , it will show her." --American Book Review, The poems are constructed with craft and care; the volatility of childhood seemingly is tempered with controlled retrospection and craft. . . . Olds's voice is original. It is even savage at times, but always controlled. Recommended for all colleges and libraries., In Satan Says , Sharon Olds convincingly, and with astonishing vigor, presents a world which, if not always hostile, is never clear about which face it will show her., "In Satan Says , Sharon Olds convincingly, and with astonishing vigor, presents a world which, if not always hostile, is never clear about which face , it will show her." --American Book Review, Olds' voice is consistently intense. In one poem after another, the spareness and bluntness of the language emphasize the violent sensuality of the images.
