“Pissed-off, stripped down, and deadly accurate, these poems spare no one.”
“Drop me off anywhere with Jiwon Choi - these wildly radiant poems of music & magic reel us in, fairy tale realisms mingled with elemental sound songs, mighty rumblings from the inner worlds of 'human mass in transit' asking 'What was it all for?'' so potently, in so many life times & variant places - this is a wondrous book.”
