“When reading poetry, I always wish I could hear the words aloud as the poet means for them to be heard. In that sense audiobooks and poetry are a perfect match, and this is immediately apparent with “The Wild Edge of the Heart: Women Poets Raise Their Voices,” an audio anthology curated and read by actor Susan Lambert. The collection takes the listener from joy to despair, from laughter to tears, and all through hearing the many and diverse voices behind the words. It takes listeners dramatically into experiences that may not be their own but with which they can wholly empathize, and reminds everyone of the connections that unite us. Proceeds from the audiobook support women’s reproductive health, so buy it to help the cause… and to ease—and challenge—your own heart.”
