“Kathleen Aguero’s poetry is startling: full of childlike wonder, then knowledge and anger brought by surviving as a city woman. Aguero never loses her whimsical perspective, and the poems rise far above flat rhetoric, full of grace and charm.”
—Joan Norris

“The eye that sees things as they are disputes with an imagination that sees things as they could be; Miriam Goodman’s poems are wry, loving, dissatisfied.”
—Celia Gilbert
