REVIEWS

"Daisy Fried's poetry is fluid and quicksilver every bit life seen close up. Hither is an original voice: provocative, poignant, and often very funny."
—Joyce Ballad Oates

"Fried's vivacious sophomore endeavor is a jiff of pure oxygen for the serious, politically engaged, unpretentious gratis-verse storytelling and so popular in American poetry a generation agone and in eclipse since. Winningly personal, the poems are nevertheless artful, with a light touch to balance their heavy subjects of social and racial injustice."
--Publishers Weekly

"The satirical tone here is delicious and the social observation is shrewd."
--Poetry Magazine
