Cate Whetzel lives in a puzzle piece shaped apartment on the northside of Chicago and teaches school children the art and craft of poetry through Hands on Stanzas, the educational outreach program at the Poetry Center of Chicago. She lives with her fiance and an increasing collection of bric-a-brac. Past book reviews can be seen in Indiana Review.
Cate Whetzel reviews Katie Ford’s “Colosseum,” a book of poems that “record [the] anxiety, trauma, and stunned sense of coping” of “the loss of New Orleans” and “the destruction and devastation of the classical world.”
