Becoming Light: Poems New And Selected (1992)

About book Becoming Light: Poems New And Selected (1992)

I went out and got this book because of a record. I was on college radio in 1995, and we got in this record from Vanessa Daou called "Zipless." I'll be honest, the only reason I checked it out is because she's on the cover and she's hot. But in the end, I really liked it. Her husband provides all the jazzy-soul-electro type music, and she sings the songs. The thing is that the songs are all taken from Erica Jong poems. I loved "The Long Tunnel of Wanting You," and that sealed it for me. I was determined to go out and find some Erica Jong poetry.Despite the fact that Jong is pretty much a feminist, I really do like her work. There's nothing wrong with being a feminist, I just feel that it makes it harder to identify with her work. But I try.
