Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Ms. Tempest has an ability to write about big, metaphysical subjects in the most vernacular language, while conjuring a sense of contemporary English life with a handful of chiseled lines . . . She demonstrates a knack . . . for being able to shuttle easily back and forth between the mundane and the mythic, the banal and philosophical." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

"Citing both the poet William Blake and the rapper RZA among her influences, she is a powerful mix of innocence and experience with a growing, and fervent, following . . . Ms. Tempest's work jumps boundaries." --Rachel Donadio, The New York Times

"[A] remarkable, powerful collection . . . These are acute and insightful poems that lodge in the ear and sear themselves on the vision." --Best Poetry Books of 2014, The Guardian on HOLD YOUR OWN

"A virtuoso . . . Tempest threads a needle between Pete Rock and Homer . . . [She is] reporting live from the Colosseum, reminding us that those who forget history are doomed to repeat it." --Barnes and Noble Review
