Trade Review
"We have before us a skillful, witty, passionate young poet.... Randall Mann is both attuned to and at odds with the natural world; he articulates the passions and predicaments of a self inside a massive, arousing, but sometimes brutal culture. And he accomplishes these things with buoyant lyric sensibilities and rejuvenating skills." - Kenyon Review"
