"Eloquent, honest, red paper flower resonates with intelligence." “Eloquent, honest, red paper flower resonates with intelligence. Suzanne Frischkorn's poems have a remarkable range of tone ¬ they can be witty, tender, abrasive, but are always lucid, and tirelessly push beyond the surface of their subject matter. What I admire in this book is how each detail carries its emotional accuracy---what I love in these poems is their drive and pulse.” - Laure-Anne Bosselaar
