Trade Review
"Clary's third book of poems, Potential Stranger, is as enigmatic in tone and reference as its title. Yet despite its mysterious, hermetic shimmer, it is paradoxically clear, a stream of deep emotional rumination. These charged prose poems gather weight and passionate emphasis as they accumulate. Beyond logic, the longings here simplify and answer metaphysical questious that the reader learns to ask as the images offer themselves for 'deciphering.' " (Carol Muske-Dukes, Los Angeles Times)"
