At the 1987 New York Book Fair Joan Larkin read the Blackout Sonnets. This sonnet sequence was published in her book -- A Long Sound (Granite Press, 1986). It is a "crown" of sonnets — the last line of each sonnet is repeated as the first line of the next. For a further explication of the poem see The Literature, Arts & Medicine Database of the NYU School of Medicine:
