--Geraldine Monk
"Architecturally wild and sturdy, Gardner's book comes from a place beyond fear and despair, from a place of deep proclivity, which is where poetry becomes ancient, modern, and new."
--Elizabeth Treadwell
"Susana Gardner’s [lapsed insel weary] is an extended social lyric of longing that refuses isolation because the "grandmany" is all around, in ancestry and memory and books and and shared future. Gardner’s is a language that recovers itself—lace re-tatted, a house rebuilt—and there is grandeur in the recovery. This is poetry full of heart and intelligence."
