This is Millar's fourth poetry collection, and he has returned to the long-lined, description-heavy style that characterized his earlier work (Overtime and Fortune) but was more stripped-down in Blue Rust. Personally, I am glad for the return to the older style; not that I didn't like Blue Rust, but I really enjoy Millar's descriptions of city and nature (and often his merging of the two, like in "California": "Sometimes the afternoon train / looks like pieces of fallen sky / chained together";

Kingdom was such an interesting collection to read--Millar discusses so many different aspects of life, from relationships, to sports, to locations, to transportation...and he does it in a way that makes you absolutely fall in love with what he's discussing. Millar certainly has a way with words, and his descriptions are absolutely beautiful. This is definitely worth a read if you're interested in expanding upon contemporary poets and their poetry. You won't be disappointed.Review cross-liste...
