Margaret Randall's latest poetry collection is perhaps her finest work yet. Vertigo of Risk is as Denise Chávez calls it Randall's Master Opus-a Testimonio to a life lived in the blessed search of Truth. The series of poems called Dearest which read as letters to friends and inspirations leads into a sharpened assembly of pieces that both celebrates and champions life and art all with Randall's rich candor and ear for language throughout.
