Author Description

"'In these latest poems by Nolcha Fox, metaphors are original, managed with ease, and often extended to the end of the poem. Irony results in poignancy and a humor that ranges from wry to outrageous. Occasional rhyme, personification, and exacting imagery contribute to the density, to texture that makes these poems memorable. As for topics, anything can be a poem, if it's good, Fox seems to be telling her readers. While her language is compact, her topics know no bounds. Life is her topic, time, and what we know and don't know about ourselves and one another.'--Pete Mladinic, author of Knives on a Table."--back cover.
