Suffering Summary The epigram of this poem is a quotation from The Aeneid in which Virgil describes the infants seen by Aeneas at the entrance of hell. The babies had been "torn from their mothers' breasts" and died before their time. This 96-line poem (24 quatrains) begins with the observation that there has never been a poem written in praise of an antibiotic. Poets waste their time on "emblems" rather than the "real thing." At this point Sappho appears and conducts the author down into hell, which is somewhat like "an oppressive suburb of the dawn," and she peers across the river to see hordes of women and children who had died of cholera, typhus, croup, and diphtheria. Sappho tells her that these women should not be defined as cipherscourt ladies or washer womenbut rather as women who once "stood boot deep in flowers once in summer / or saw winter come in with a single magpie / in a caul of haws." The dead were once real people with their own life stories; real women, rather than aging statistics. The author will remember "the silences in which are our beginnings." [96 lines]

Norton, $21 (0-393-04663-X). DDC: 821. It is always a joy to see a poet at the peak of her power. Boland, one of Ireland's greatest and among the best writing in English anywhere, pushes herself even beyond the excellence of her last collection, In a Time of Violence (1994). Her formal concision and control here are put to the service of the rawest emotions she has yet shown. It is no accident that she assumes in one poem the persona of Ceres (the Roman version of Demeter), for this is a book about lossnot death but the poignant, anticipatory grief of autumn, when even beauty hurts because of the bleak future that it portends. An autobiographical thread runs through the poems: a woman in midlife watches her daughters and her own youthful self recede from view, and she finds herself in a far, unfamiliar country. Yet Boland is never narrowly personal: the oppressive history of Ireland looms behind the life details, and behind it, the larger oppression of colonization, including the most intimate colonization, that of women by men. Boland is never unambiguous about colonization, for she sees the love of the colonist for the land, and she sees "what I am safe from" as well as "what I have lost." A collection for rereading and savoring.

That the Science of Cartography Is Limited forest cannot show the fragrance of balsam, the gloom of cypresses, is what I wish to prove. When you and I were first in love we drove to the borders of Connacht and entered a wood there. Look down you said: this was once a famine road. I looked down at ivy and the scutch grass rough-cast stone had disappeared into as you told me in the second winter of their ordeal, in 1847, when the crop had failed twice, Relief Committees gave the starving Irish such roads to build. Where they died, there the road ended and ends still and when I take down the map of this island, it is never so I can say here is the masterful, the apt rendering of the spherical as flat, nor an ingenious design which persuades a curve into a plane, but to tell myself again that the line which says woodland and cries hunger and gives out among sweet pine and cypress, and finds no horizon will not be there.

I want to take this dried-out face, as you take a starling from behind iron, and return it to its elements of air, of ending- so that Autumn which was once the hard look of stars, the frown on a gardener's face, a gradual bronzing of the distance, will be, from now on, a crisp tinder underfoot. Cheekbones. Eyes. Will be a mouth crying out. Let me.
