"Dark rhyming lyrics about love and impending loss. The poems may shake you, so be forewarned."-Alan Cheuse, NPR

"[Linda Pastan's] poems are skillfully written with lovely syntax and strong, evocative imagery. Surprising readers with subject and an occasional rhyme, Pastan proves once again that, 12 books later, she is a poet who can ground us, who can astound us. Essential reading for poetry lovers."-Library Journal
