Puts you right there in the middle of their tangly, tingly relationship. No need for it to be book-length, the free verse flows over and through you like the lovers’ feeling for each other. Loved the twists and turns of life as it’s lived.
Thank you, Marilyn! “tangly, tingly relationship.” This is a wonderful assessment.
“The Guy” by Marilyn Wolf was my first foray into free verse. This is the journey of one woman through love, friendship, loss and taking control again. The language is colorful and descriptive which is interspersed with space and line drawings. In many ways I found the spaces as powerful as the language. It is a book that has continued to follow me in thought and hope.
Thank you.
