Publisher Marketing: "Larry Kearney’s lyrical, probing voice has been an essential in American poetry for the last 50 years."––Joanne Kyger
"Kearney is one of those unsung cats who has been producing intelligent thoughtful snarly deeply musical poetry, deeply felt wryly wrought astute poetry of the first rank for decades for a select few—you’re in for a rare treat."––David Meltzer
"His ear is uncanny, tuned with perfect fidelity to culture high and low, to all the temptations of language and heaven. His curiosity about form and metric have turned his work into a palace of music; it’s a poetry so melodic and harmonically inventive as to approach the aural splendor of, say, Charlie Parker’s Birdland . . ."––Kevin Killian
"The principle of Larry Kearney’s art is permeability. He doesn’t reference the world, he reveals it’s essential poetry. Nothing is not included."––Rick London
