"Beyond love, beyond being left, beyond carrying our dead by dancing with them, beyond everything that we tend and wreck, nourish and burn, grieve and dream, is a nakedness light as drugstore ribbon. These sly, tender, affectionate poems will, before you know it, undress you."   

—Joy Katz, author of All You Do Is Perceive

"... Beeson’s staggering imagination and unruly images are unparalleled, as the speaker leaps and conjures language: "I am a talkative Carolina Wren." Beeson owns the body’s manifesto: "…a great cathedral in my pelvis." A stunning book." 

—Jan Beatty, The Body Wars, University of Pittsburgh Press
