Her poems 'Montauk' is my FAVORITE!!! Sarah Kay will her forever be my favorite contemporary poet.. Strong on the page as well. Sarah Kay's voice in "No Matter the Wreckage" comes out clear and strong on page as she does in a spoken word poetry. Her poems are not as didactic as many other spoken word poets and have a lyric touch. Due to the nature of the spoken word poetry and its relationship to performance, often subtly and emotional resonance is softened for the blunt impact. Kay's poetry maintains that lyric softness but with absolute clarity. They are graceful and emotional both performed and on the page.. Gabriel C said Recommended. From the wife: Finally something worth reading! Lately, I have been reading too many things with great reviews on Amazon and then they come and they are crap! This has rhythm, melody, structure and flowIt is gorgeous and I could relate to some of the stories even without ever having been to NY (most of what she writes is set there).
