"These poems craft a dark, unsettling music out of the places where doubt and faith, words and silence, love and not-love meet. But these are poems also grounded in the common world, in Brooklyn mornings and Wednesday trains and a radio playing in the backround. What unites the particular and the whole are gifts of language and turns of truth which make this a powerful and persuasive first collection."—Eavan Boland
