She eulogizes her mother in poems such as â€œMediterranean,â€ where she writes, â€œthe mystery was / not that she walked there, ten years after her death, / / but that she vanished, and let twilight take her placeâ€”.â€ In other poems, Warren contemplates wreckage and sorrow in family life, in Hurricane Katrina, and in the Trojan War, but also moments of eerie blessing. In her most forceful collection to date, she obsessively traces themes, both ancient and modern, in a voice compelling and deeply persuasive. from ""Mediterranean"" Â Â Â Â Â There was something I wanted to say, at the age of twelve, Â Â Â Â Â some question she hadn't answered, Â Â Â Â Â and yesterday, so clearly seeing her pace before me Â Â Â Â Â it rose again to the tip of my tongue, and the mystery was Â Â Â Â Â not that she walked there, ten years after her death, Â Â Â Â Â but that she vanished, and let twilight take her placeâ€”
