"This is a fucking great book. I hadn't read anything from John in a while and I was really stricken with poetry boners. The poems have all sorts of nasty edibles and are quite elusive. They make me think of the way Anselm Hollo talks about John Ashbery. The poems almost make you think they are "about" something or contain some sort of meaning, but really there is refreshingly no reasonable logic. Relationships between words and events and I don't know what the fuck is going on. I'm not missing anything am I? Is this about some Greek war or something? I hope not, if so I apologize"
