Some very interesting imagery here. Andrew Lundwall understands and communicates sensuality well. One can only wish there were more poems to get a better idea of style. Worth a read - several times over!

A precise abstract armature floating a vaguely noirish tale of sex and booze with a jazzy classical soundtrack and animal intrusions; dotted throughout with exotic specifics - speaking antler, blaring estrogen encampment, dance pancreatic armadillo.

Well done, but not quite enough tooth for my tastes. I love these micro-chapbooks though - they provide and demand focus, and allow and encourage numerous readings.

Lundwall's use of language is innovative.

Written well, but think it would have been better in audio or spoken aloud.
