Selected poems of Anne Sexton

I didn't connect with this collection. I liked some of her earlier works; I'm a sucker for the rhetoric of repetition and tactful rhyme. But I think I'm not in the right mental state, or stage in my life, to really enjoy or fully understand these poems. Pretty much feel the same about this as I did The Bell Jar... I wanted to like it, and I tried to make myself like it, but in the end it felt like a chore.
