Phyllis Koestenbaum's "Criminal Sonnets" reflect an out-of-control world of lawlessness and paranoia. Horrible, yet grimly funny, they invite the reader into the mind of a poet who connects our century's greatest crimes with the calamity of her personal history. Our attention is trapped by Koestenbaum's revolutionary forms as much as by the wickedness and cruelty uniting public and private lives.
