“I think it may be her most daring book–one that will be talked about and should get a lot of attention though it’s not for too young or narrowly religious or fuddy duddy audience— But it’s so fresh—really original and one of the most daring books of poetry I have ever read—I just love it—The poems Jesus,the Shrink and the Man Who Was Leaving as well as Jesus and the Ring #2 are so wildly wonderful to name just two that are absolutely amazingly striking and unforgettable.”
— Laura Boss, Lips Magazine
“wow. this book of poems took me by surprise. I read through a few times before I let go of my own attitude of what was being written…” — Irene Koronas
“Light at the End. Kept me up till now (it’s 3:45 a.m). My mind may not go to sleep at all now.” — Ted Roberts
“No one can milk a metaphor like Lyn Lifshin. Her new collection is a tour de force & an instant classic. — Eric Greinke
