Dien Cai Dau is the best collection of war poetry I have ever read. I don't know if the relative immediacy of the Vietnam War, and the unquestionable importance that war had for the generation just ahead of me, predisposes me to be drawn to this collection, or not. I do know the collection as a collection is truly beautiful and haunting. Overall, I really like and respect Komunyakaa's body of work, and believe this collection to be his absolute finest. And Komunyakaa's "Facing It" (a poem in this collection) has few rivals among the staggering number of free verse English poems ever written. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

One of the beautiful aspects of Komunyakaa’s poetry is his vivid sense of how even the most beautiful elements of nature have a darker side. In “Somewhere Near Phu Bai,” Komunyakaa writes “The moon cuts through/the night trees like a circular saw/white hot. . . .” and in “Starlight Scope Myopia,” he suggests, “Viet Cong/move under our eyelids,/lords over loneliness/winding like coral vine through/sandalwood & lotus/.”
