I've only heard her read allowed bits of it (which I enjoyed). I read Bartocq's Ophelia and liked it quite a bit.

Here's a nice recording of some reading Charles Bukowski's "Bluebird." Much better, in my opinion, than listening to Bukowski read his own stuff (in which case I'd rather just read it).

Love Is a Dog from Hell by Charles Bukowski
>Bukowski is generally a bunch of hit-or-miss poems, but usually there aren't too many misses. This book seems to have more than usual, though the gems are quite excellent as far as the canon of his works is concerned.

Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks
>I just started it. Loads of case studies as usual. Fun stuff. Haven't learned anything about perception of music though. Just weird things that've happened to people. Again, I've only just started it.

Bellocq's Ophelia by Natasha Trethewey
>Nice poems. Very readable verse. There isn't as much of a narrative as I'd expected, which I think works quite nicely actually. Not sure if something feels lacking or not though.
