Reviews
"Svoboda has such range--of subject, of emotion (from whimsical play to chillingly dead serious), that these poems take you on a wild ride, fast and dangerous, but always in control. This is a goddamn terrific book!"--Thomas Lux, on Weapons Grade, "Svoboda triumphs, wriggling out of her own verbal knots with the energy and wit of a sideshow star."--Timothy Donnelly, on Mere Mortals, Cool, wry surface: depth charge of cry, of outrage-language at the edge of utterance, utterly original, black-bordered, indelible as we are not., "In all, Svoboda's outlandish wit . . . stuns the face of culture's illusions like lightning. Negotiating a 'wacked-out' path to rueful wisdom, she casts a cold eye at love beyond innocence at the end of the 20th century . . . For readers who prefer the chill of a dry martini."-- Library Journal, "For those who wish to study a modern style, here is a volume to dig into."- Virginia Quarterly Review, "One of Svoboda's most valuable assets is a rambling, vivid imagination which, when not held in check by myth and legend, is fully original."-- Publishers Weekly, "For those who wish to study a modern style, here is a volume to dig into."-Virginia Quarterly Review, "For those who wish to study a modern style, here is a volume to dig into."-- Virginia Quarterly Review, "Svoboda has such range-of subject, of emotion (from whimsical play to chillingly dead serious), that these poems take you on a wild ride, fast and dangerous, but always in control.

Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
