Sharon Olds

If you love reading contemporary poetry, don't miss to go through Sharon Olds' 'Stag's Leap' (2012) which not only bagged T.S. Eliot Prize but Pulitzer prize too. Her poems are filled with the tone of urgency, not lucid but less erudite than Plath (Plath should be campared with her) Here is what in awarding the T.S. Eliot prize, Carol Ann Duffy, chair of the final judging panel, said: “This was the book of her career. There is a grace and chivalry in her grief that marks her out as being a world-class poet. I always say that poetry is the music of being human, and in this book she is really singing. Her journey from grief to healing is so beautifully executed.”
