How Many Heartbeats?

By Ronaye Hudyma

Ronaye Hudyma's new collection is a work of continuously startling variety. Hudyma is equally at home in complex metaphysical meditations, crafted in verse which has an almost oriental poise and calm; in lyrics which dance with the vitality and energy of the blues; or in tender, sorrowful poems of lost love. Her modes of writing range from free verse which has the control and precision of the most careful prose, to tautly rhythmical rhymes, as well as all stops in between. She can blend in the same poem, delicate internal rhymes with metrical experiment and irregularity. Out of it all shines the vision of a poet who is not afraid to confront the most fundamental and mysterious questions of our existence, yet who also has a sharp eye for its tiniest details. How Many Heartbeats? is a collection to savour and to return to.
