The tension in Ed Pavlic's poems is a language-cable wrought to swing you out over unnerving spaces, let you see and hear what they really hold, and bring you back up more alive than you were before. Dialogic, dangerous, this is a poetics of body and soul, music to isten to with all five sense.

—Adrienne Rich

Over the years, as Danny has published more stories and novels about films, and suicide, and the existential issues confronting contemporary mankind, I have come to appreciate his erudition, his writing talent, the richness of his imagination, and also his wonderful humor. To spend an evening with him without laughing is quite simply inconceivable.

—Elie Wiesel

Christopher Bakken - Goat Funeral

Ed Pavlic - Labors Lost and Left Unfinished

A Book for Daniel Stern

  This is the best second book of poems I've read in a decade.

— Richard Howard

  Bakken is using all kinds of poetic arms to convery a complex,   ambivalent vision spun between the joy of an afternoon in Greece   and the dying of a cat. This is an admirable, rich collection of poems.

— Adam Zagajewski
