Praise for the collection

"The harsh, complex clarity and the paradoxically tender compassion of this book make an extraordinary power for the dimensions of its hero, Duhamel. No work of recent poetry has entered such ground at all. Bill Tremblay offers a unique testament to a world whose brutal fragility has found no other way to speak." —Robert Creeley
