June Rockefeller…

May 25, 2013 by KR

…reviewed Robinson Alone for Redivider, and in her review, she says:

“A book like this is risky to write.  How to borrow a character from such an admired poet and give it life?  How to do it justice without overdoing it so that it feels inauthentic.  I don’t envy Rooney’s task but I envy the result.  The more time I spend with Robinson Alone the more I admire it.  It’s the type of collection that leaves you wanting more and yet, still discovering something new with each read.”

Thanks, June. You can read the whole review here.
