Editorial Reviews
Review
Brian Daldorph offers readers what we hope for in a book of poems, the chance to be transported. -- Robert Stewart, editor, New Letters
Senegal Blues is a relentlessly honest misx of Whitman's observant eye, Basho's sensitive precision, and Daldorph's own generous heart. -- Vince Gotera, editor, North American Review
This book shows Daldorph at the height of his powers. Don't miss it. -- Denise Low, author, Thailand Journal
