Here's a link to an insightful review of Cole Swensen's Ours by Donna Stonecipher:

The review is a fine example of close reading (attentiveness to the poetry as language) and drawing out many ideas that are central to the poems (the double space of the garden as nature/culture, private/public, "ours"/"not ours," cyclical/linear, and so on). We'll explore many of these ideas in our discussions of the book.
