Review # 1 was written on 2011-11-30 00:00:00 Robert Peluse Goldbarth is a master of the essay form. His agility is apparent throughout this collection, where he's able to draw connections between such diverse topics as parallel universe theories and dating a lesbian before she comes out to da Vinci's obsession with mandalas and his friend Ellen's struggle with mental illness. He handles all these topics with the heart and microscopic vision of the poet he is, so there are lines the hit like epiphanies of lyric art. Expect to be dazzled and challenged.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-07-03 00:00:00 Matt Dickie Various Goldbarth Creative NonFiction essays--not as good as "Griffin" or "The Knife," but he has some interesting writing acrobatics and abstract questions (like thoughts on what his occupations in previous lives were...) that are exciting, though dense.
