Dated 1974, unknown day or month. Louise Kertesz review of Sexton’s “The Death Notebooks” for the Daily Hampshire Gazette. Entitled “Sexton’s poetry: ax for our frozen sea,” Kertesz summarizes some of Sexton’s works and refers to the “frozen sea,” or our numbed consciousness of the special horrors of the 20th Century, from World War I through Hitler and Vietnam. Sexton was the ax for our frozen sea, which means that she awakened our consciousness to these horrific times in history.
