Review Quotes

"[Davis's] voice remains among the sharpest and most unique in contemporary poetry." --The Independent "Davis's poems so deeply probe the human condition that we find ourselves lost in new, perplexing, and unidentifiable territories."--Manoa "Davis is as good a DeLillo at playing off our internal hunger for meaning against suface senselessness. And Davis catches the surface brilliantly."--American Book Review "I treasure this book. I keep it next to me. I read it over and over." --Field
