 Review - News & Smoke: Selected Poems by Sharon Thesen
This collection of poems features selections from Thesen's six books of poetry, of which only one is still in print, and some of her previously uncollected poems which have hitherto only appeared in magazines.
Thesen's poetry is very spare and precise, which mirrors her publishing history.
Thesen's poetry displays an ambiguous mistrust of human institutions, yet an ability to move beyond that mistrust to a sort of inner peace; an ability to extract an odd sense of beauty from the sometimes depressing realities of existence.

 House of Anansi Press : titles
In spinning acts of violence into fairytales, mundane anxieties into catchy advertising jingles, and pedestrian scenes into surrealistic filmscapes, Thesen reveals to us a pair of scissors - a double-edged sword where workaday events hold transcendent magic, and artful fantasies are born of inescapable banality.
Sharon Thesen's new collection brims with honesty, toughness, humour, and genius.
Thesen sparkles with her usual flair for locating the unexpected humour, the surrealness, in the everyday.

 Feminist Ecocritique as Forensic Archaeology: Digging in Critical Graveyards and Phyllis Webb's Gardens
But there were always more poets where the dead ones came from, and it is through their pain, despair, loss, and suicide that Webb renews herself again and again, as her poetry cycles through the seasons of its early development.
As Sharon Thesen put it: "[w]hile Webb’s concerns are passionate, her poems are never linguistic or ideological battlegrounds: whatever they might be saying, we are aware of an energy composed inside the diction and consciousness of the poem" (13).
Indeed, what keeps the poet of "The Glass Castle" sane in a place that drove her predecessors mad is "balance." This balance keeps the poem from becoming an ideological battleground upon which two theories of poetry compete for dominance.
