This was a challenging read, but in a good way. Not often do you find poems that really evoke physical sensations. My stomach hurt with discomfort and anger and sadness at different points throughout. The poem “the whole world is singing” broke me; I’ll never forget it. Very queer, very dark, very intense, very explorative. I doubt I’ll ever find a book quite like it.

Absolutely loved it. The poems were all fresh and provocative, so beautifully written. Vivid prose and verse. Several of the poems touched me quite profoundly. I cannot wait to read more of Gottlieb's work.
