Trade Review
"Unswerving perspectives on beauty and pain—on age, and loss—give grace and surprise to each page…These intimate, moving, meticulously crafted poems will stay with the reader for a long time." -- Eavan Boland
"Judgment Day, with formal virtuosity, explores food and its multiple cultural meanings, infuses a series of ekphrastic poems with history, often includes love lyric and elegy in one poem, gives us politically charged narratives of childhood and young womanhood in New York, and a wry and revolutionary look at an ageing body still desiring, desired, and in motion." -- Marilyn Hacker
