From the rear cover
Praise for Thomas Lynch
Lynch engages the reader with a mixture of poetic and funerary elements...His voice is rich and generous.
- Richard Bernstein, New York Times
Lynch's vivid prose has the electricity of writing that tells us what is going on in the secret places of the community--and the secret places of the heart.
- USA Today
[Lynch] is able to take us inside the palpable business of blood, tears, and the final verse of life in a manner that is almost shocking in the relief it delivers.
- Boston Globe
Thomas Lynch is an original...If there were more Thomas Lynches in the world, it might be a little less full of hatred and have a little more room in it.
- George Bornstein, Times Literary Supplement
