Such a wonderful book with which to begin the year. The ambiguities suggested by the title (I.e., ‘moving quickly� and ‘going without�) are beautifully explored. The poems about her mother and father are quite sensational. Make no mistake - this is not ‘easy� poetry nor is it so immediately appealing as some of the classics of the Romantic era. However, neither did Keats write bound to suspicions as to the nature of language. Repeated readings yield profound rewards.
