"Wise, witty, insightful, generous, culturally accurate and quite moving" wrote Anne Waldman of this long poem cycle of micro-narratives. "It's rare to discover a man who can describe a lipstick as being 'aromatic as fresh curry with a hint of poached pears' and a birthday dress glowing 'like Aretha Franklin waking on a fabulous couch,'" wrote Sharon Mesmer.
