ReviewsIn a perfect world, Rachel Wetzsteon would be one of the most popular poets of her generation. You would see people in the outdoor cafes along Upper Broadway reading copies of Sakura Park, her third collection, the way pilgrims to Greenwich Village carry Scott Fitzgerald or Edna St. Vincent Millay. For Wetzsteon's poems manage to turn Morningside Heights—a quiet, bourgeois neighborhood near Columbia University, home to the park of her title—into a theater of romance, an intellectual haven, a flaneur's paradise. Her poems evoke the kind of life that generations of young people have come to New York to live—earnest, glamorous, and passionate, full of sex and articulate suffering...[10] Rachel Wetzsteon’s inheritance from W.H. Auden (she’s the author of Influential Ghosts: A Study of Auden’s Sources) is nowhere more apparent than in her third collection. Just as in Auden’s “Musée des Beaux Arts,” where life goes on as Icarus plunges into the sea, Wetzsteon has set a tale of personal heartbreak against the bustling, vivid life of New York City.[11] References1. ^1 {{cite news| url=https://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/01/books/01wetzsteon.html| title=Rachel Wetzsteon, Poet of Keen Insights and Wit, Dies at 42| author=Margalit Fox| date=December 31, 2009| work=The New York Times}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.amherst.edu/aboutamherst/news/news_releases/2000/10_2000/node/9931|title=Poet Rachel Wetzseon To Read - Amherst College|work=amherst.edu}} 3. ^http://euphrates.wpunj.edu/faculty/parrasj/EngDeptWebpageEUPHRATES/Faculty.htm 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.newyorker.com/search/query?query=wetzsteon&queryType=nonparsed&submitbtn.x=35&submitbtn.y=9&submitbtn=Submit|title=The New Yorker|author=The New Yorker|work=The New Yorker}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.tnr.com/article/thirty-three|title=From "Thirty-Three"|author=The New Republic|work=The New Republic}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thenation.com/doc/20021021/poem|title=October 21, 2002|work=thenation.com}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.villagevoice.com/authors/rachel-wetzsteon|title=Rachel Wetzsteon - New York - Village Voice|work=villagevoice.com}} 8. ^{{cite journal| url=http://www.tnr.com/article/books-and-arts/rachel-wetzsteon| title=In Memory, and Admiration, of Rachel Wetzsteon| author=Adam Kirsch| work=The New Republic| date=December 30, 2009 }} 9. ^"DEPARTMENTAL & RELATED EVENTS", Columbia University 10. ^{{cite journal| url=http://www.cprw.com/Kirsch/youngpoets3.htm| title=Young Poets Calling: Part 3 | author=Adam Kirsch| work=Contemporary Poetry Review }} 11. ^"Microreviews: Sakura Park", Boston Review, Amy Newlove Schroeder, MARCH/APRIL 2008 External links
