Hahn's self-revelation is so startling, and her details so extraordinary, that she virtually detonates her poems with energy. . . . Plath, Ai, Sexton--Hahn brings to mind those vivid, violent poets, but her voice is clearly her own, strong and without either shrillness or shame.\"--Patricia Monaghan, \u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"In her third book of poems, \u003ci\u003eConfession\u003c\/i\u003e, Susan Hahn continues to refine her amazing capacity to disquiet, disgust and fascinate. This may not sound like a recommendation, but it is. . . . The precision of Hahn's language stands out even more clearly when compared to the looser, baggier free verse that dominates so much contemporary poetry.\"--Maureen McLane, \u003ci\u003eChicago Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47781116018839,"sku":"9780226312736","price":9513.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780226312736.webp?v=1778050702","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/confession-volume-1997-9780226312736","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
