Review Quotes

"There is no question that these are athletic poems; they open their fullest flower to those with a strong vocabulary...This abstract web of multiple meanings feels, on first reading, extremely reticent, even rarefied. When the words are illuminated against the sonics, however, the poems literally explode...It is extremely fine work, and finely wrought."
--Poetry International #17
