Keeping My Name bears the stamp of an assured poet already known in New Formalist circles for her work in meter and rhyme. With a distinctive blend of craft and deep feeling, clarity and subtle thought, Tufariello gives new resonance to the historical and mythic past by drawing larger significance from contemporary life. Keeping My Name reflects a particular interest in and compassion for the lives of women, past and present. Its five sections offer a variety of repasts. One brings women of the Old and New Testaments to life with freshness and immediacy. Another traces the dissolution of a marriage; a third, the experience--rarely represented in poetry--of infertility and its high-tech treatment. At center, counterpoising contemporary poems of love and grief, is a series of translations from Petrarch and other classic Italian love poets. Tufariello addresses loss and longing, yet discovers joy in everyday things--a walrus being fed at an aquarium, a small girl dancing at a wedding, a basketball game on a city playground. Her warmth, tempered by wit, is unsentimental. Readers who appreciate well-made, accessible poems will find much to savor here.
