" Rich is a traveler and an observant one at that, with a keene attention to detail and a wonderful ear. These lyric poems (are) a delight.
Highly recommended."

                                      Library Journal

" From the boldly erotic to the elegiac --- Susan Rich gives us a collection of poems sensual yet exact in their language, generous in the range and power of their emotion."

                                       J.M. Coetzee

    " I admired her talent years ago and this book makes it clear she has grown into a mature and accomplished poet."

    Linda Pastan

"Susan Rich writes gorgeous lyrical poetry which so courageously tells us the truth about the world, tells us the world is much larger than we Americans usually like to admit. Her beautiful ear, her fierce attention to detail, her deeply human empathy inspire me and make me glad. I am glad, no --- thrilled --- that there exists such a unique and memorable voice writing today about the joys and grievances of our planet, writing with such charge in ideas and language."

                                       Ilya Kaminsky
