"Tandon's keen eye and idiosyncratic ear -- he picks up shards of language and refashions them, making new wholes from fragments of everyday speech -- combine to create a poetry with its own quiet urgency. There is a music that plays beautifully from poem to poem, as the language in subtle ways probes the underlying beauties of casual syntax. I look forward to Tandon's future work with considerable anticipation, although glad to have what he has given us already."
-- Jay Parini, author of Why Poetry Matters
