Review of Todd Davis chapbook
Many thanks to Dave Bonta over at Via Negativa for his lovely, insightful review of Household of Water, Moon, & Snow by Todd Davis. The review posted last week; we’re a little slow here but very much enjoyed reading it this evening.
It’s fascinating how a good review can lead us to reconsider poems we thought were already familiar: having typeset, proofread, and assembled many copies of Household, I was nonetheless invited into these poems all over again. Thanks, Dave.
