God Was Right by Diana Hamilton
Poetry. GOD WAS RIGHT collects poems that take the form of arguments, essays, and letters. The title poem argues that God was right to make us love cats (and then watch them die); another categorizes the way women like to be kissed; one proposes a sex ed that takes into account persuasion and pleasure; another argues men should write bad poetry; a letter tries to make friendship about love; a five-paragraph essay tries to disarm heartbreak via analysis; etc. These poems/essays are hyperbolic attempts to write something adequate to a feeling.Diana Hamilton is the author of three novels and four chapbooks, including GOD WAS RIGHT (Ugly Duckling Presse), THE AWFUL TRUTH (Golias Books), and Okay, Okay (Truck Books). She writes about style, sobbing, crap, kisses, dreams, fainting, writing, and re-reading in poetry, fiction, and criticism. In Alejandro Miguel Justino Crawford's first-person shooter Diana Hamilton's Dreams (Gauss PDF), you can walk around audio recordings of her dreams. She holds a doctorate in Comparative Literature from Cornell University and is currently the Director of the Writing Center at Baruch College.
