BOOK INFO

 

"There is something about these poems that is so immediate, so unflinching, so focused and visceral in their understatement, that I was, on first reading, astonished.  On second reading I was astonished and deeply moved.  On third reading I was astonished, deeply moved, and filled with joy!"
 --Thomas Lux, De Novo Judge - 2008
***
"In Good Friday Kiss, I find everything I want in a poetry book.  Precise language. Daring poems.  Unexpected wisdom.  An ambitious range of voice and emotion.  A sense of anguish and salvation.  This is a first book to admire and a poet to watch." 
-- Virgil Saurez, author of 90 Miles: Selected and New Poems

- Kim Addonzio

- Joe Millar

- Ellen Bass

Blue Laws is a book of gritty beauty and unexpected turns.”
