Reviews

"If John Clare had toured the United States with Oscar Wilde, their notebooks, twisted together
in a tornado and edited by Audubon and Escoffier, might have read like these poems: evocative,
sophisticated and as ever-in-the-present as memory must always be."
--Tom Raworth
..."a poet whose work has the sure-footed, self-referential freshness of a Mayakovsky or a Gertrude Stein."
--San Francisco Review of Books
