I'm not a judge of great poetry, but I did like the poems in this collection. More importantly, though, they effectively raise awareness of a deadly disease that is all but forgotten in the US. I especially liked pairing the poems with headlines–some informative, some misleading–drawn from other publications. Having spent a fair amount of time in malaria areas, I understand the danger of this disease. The author is to be commended for helping the work toward eradication.
