Praise for Adam in the Garden
In this book, we find a poet willing to risk sentimentality without collapsing into sentiment. A seeker willing to risk blasphemy in his personal search for truth. ~ Dorianne Laux, Pulitizer finalist and author of Life on Earth
These poems are portals to hidden rooms, fields, galaxies. ~ Danusha Laméris, author of Bonfire Opera
A subtle, skillful collection. ~ Randall Mann, author of Deal
