“These are solid poems that hit you hard with their unabashed anger and joy. (…) If you’re feeling politically apathetic, this collection’s a swift elbow to the gut, and if you’re struggling in the thick of things, it will be a welcome balm. Well done, and highly recommended.”
– Sarah Pinder, Broken Pencil Magazine, Issue 40, 2008
