Sharp as a razor clam, soft as the animal inside, Dallett's emotions crystallize in this slim volume to spell out her love experience with a vengeance.
"These poems speak of love, sex and relationships in the way they are actually lived, with all the pleasures and brutality. They are tender, bitter and, above all, unfailingly true."--William Taylor, Jr., author of BLOOD OF A TOURIST (sunnyoutside, 2014)
"In poem upon poem, Cassandra Dallett pours out her cool and steaming heart in unmeasured rouds of bittersweet toasts and takes. Dallett's voice and vision shine."--Al Young, California Poet Laureate and author of Something About the Blues: An Unlikely Collection of Poetry (Sourcebooks MediaFusion, 2007)
"Cassandra Dallett writes like a feminist self-aware Charles Bukowski. Sure there's plenty of sex, drugs, violence, and rock 'n roll, but there's a lot of quiet 'spots of time,' as Wordsworth would say, where the clearly defined and explained devolves into the philisophical, and the stereotype changes into a nuanced portrait...Dallett never apologizes for or shies away from her own faults, cravings, addictions, and mistakes."--Christine Hamm, author of Echo Park (BlazeVOX, 2011).
