Customer Reviews

This is a raw and powerful volume of narrative poetry.

Challender understands how our dead and our dying haunt us, how the past has an immediate and physical effect on the present--especially for those who feel personal guilt and who feel they can't avoid their responsibility for that past. And he brings this understanding to the page here with an economical clarity and concision that is really remarkable in its ability to sound fresh, to approach surrealism without losing focus, to leave us breathless. --From the Summer issue of THE PRAIRIE SCHOONER Reviewer, Joel Peckham
