Review
"Mark Jarman's new collection is one of the best examples of the new narrative's powers and techniques...Each superb narrative seduces us into a story and then, when we are caught, leads us through levels of perception until we realize that we are always part of what we hear."--The Hudson Review
"Jarman...weaves a spell of stories only half remembered, an understated intirigue slowly gathering intensity."--Virginia Quarterly Review
"Mark Jarman is... one of the most thoughtful and adroit poets writing these days, a man with handsome ambitions."--The Georgia Review
"Jarman is a poet in whose work intelligence is as important, obvious, and strong as emotion."--Booklist --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
