Janelle''s third collection of poesy plants itself firmly in the heart of philosophical matters, growing hypotheses and extracting their nectars for evidence of the spiritual as physical. Cordero''s faith in life itself as supernatural provides us a chance to relish meaning from mystery.

These poems explore the complexities of interpersonal relationships with equal measure of nostalgia, horror, and hope. Mela''s words find strength in fragility and heal brutal wounds by exposure.

At times playful, and often profound, Siglin''s verse explores both a melodic nature in language and the power of its calculation. These poems heal and transform the reader, providing a sense of clarity through their surreal crypticism. 

"V.C. McCabe's poems are bound to the land, by fire and flood, by vine and asphalt. This outstanding debut volume is the home that she has made for us in this place, built from a collection of sharp angles and smoothed by generous hands."- ELIZABETH CATTE, author of What You are Getting Wrong About Appalachia
