Books by Cecilia Martínez-Gil

Psaltery and Serpentines kisses its readers on the mouth so that the poetry becomes 'the ripe fruit to . . . lips,' and one wakes to loving poetry, this poetry in particular. Cecilia Martinez-Gil welcomes the reader into the world of poetry as a partner in the creative act, and readers engage this book-length seduction as tango partners and 'symphonic creatures.' ...Opening this book to any of its poems will weep the imagination into the poet's creation, and its reviewer's lips will burn for hundreds of kisses. -Rich Murphy, author of Voyeur and judge for the 2009 Gival Press Poetry Award
