Query: Iowa Poetry Reprise

The Iowa Writers Workshop is often attacked for producing a brand of poetry that is...well, a "brand." Something so formulaic that it's noticeable from far and away as what has become known as the "Iowa style." In the case of Harvey's debut collection, this is much the case. However comendable a first book may be, this one from Harvey seems to speak to that odd new phenomenon of publishing before one's ready. Too many of these poems repeat themselves, and I don't mean formally (which is of course their purpose). They repeat themselves imagistically, tonally, in terms of subject matter, and emotion. There are about six full discrete separate poems in this collection; the rest are an attempt--or seem so--at filling a book.Harvey seems to have some talent, but her attention I think should focus on originality and on finding a truly deeply felt emotive subject. This book does not cut it.
