Praise for Against the Sun
"...a quality of 'dreamlike' narrative...[which creates] a kind
of space....a sensual quality of attention in which 'objectivity'
occurs like pressure on objects." --Leslie Scalapino
"...it's intricate and has worlds
of breath and body in it!...lucid and electric!" --Rochelle Owens
"Rich in particulars, presences,
and the open distinction of the fingerprint, i.e., the uniqueness of
one's ineffable song." -- David Melzer
"...active grace and clarity." -- Robert Creeley
"...[the] freedom to glide between culture and different points
of reference beguiled and intrigued...[these] have such a wide range of
human possibilties in them" -- Diane Wakoski
"...lovely and true
-- no hype or performing ego but the eye of the poet (and the ear, too) attending, pleasuring
in the lost detail of the world." -- Kathleen Fraser
Praise for Night's Reading (new manuscript)
"a work of gorgeous eroticism as a celebration of
the body in the process of escape." --Jerome Rothenberg
