Jeanne Beaumont's Burning of the Three Fires recently earned respectable praise, courtesy of Coal Hill Review. Her poems are called curious for a few reasons: "First, Beaumont is alert to various and sometimes obscure aspects of the world: arcane information from Wikipedia, art, etymologies, fairy tales told slant, slasher movies, magician's tricks.  Then, the poems are curious in the older sense: subtly, carefully, and skillfully worked." The reviewer seems particularly fond of Beaumont's subtlety, of her ability to manipulate the tone "with such a light touch," which left the reviewer feeling "the kind of twist someone can give when she has you in her grasp--as kids we used to call it an "Indian burn." Finally, the reviewer commends Beaumont for her ability to "[make] the strange familiar and the familiar strange," which is done particularly well when Beaumont "picks up the dull language of everyday and sets it alight."
