Praise for Reading Water

In this mesmerizing book, the ‘rich vanishing seasons’ of life are rendered beautifully. Each poem about family, each about travel, each poem about love is fluid and precise and memorable. Memory, here, is the ‘strongest / of the senses’ and its strength is amplified by a deft shaping of the line and a startling imagination rippling in the phrasing, in the imagery.                                       - Eduardo Corral -

These poems explore our particular American moment, all of us figuring out what to do with our angers and our loves.        - Jill McDonough​ -

Reading Water dives deep and dares us to hold our breath...(in it) you will find the intricacies of our own frail human hearts.
                               - Sean Thomas Dougherty -
