What Others Say

 

On Multiversal:

“Amy Catanzano offers us a poetic vision of multiple orders and multiple forms, of a fluid time set loose from linearity, and an open space that is motile and multidimensional. The work exists at once in a future-past and in a variety of temporal modes.”

    — Michael Palmer

“The mind/poetry of this book is wondrous, strange, a polyvalent stimulant. I didn’t think poetry could ever again be so beautiful. ‘Between the eye and its rock star fractal/Straight into the future!’”

    — Anne Waldman

 

On iEpiphany:

“…for Catanzano, the temporality of the lyric takes a turn; the poems in this book have become lyrics of temporality. The iEpiphanies that follow are nothing less than glimpses of light moving through time: light and time, intertwined.”

    — Lyn Hejinian

iEpiphany proposes a futuristic lyric that implodes upon impact. These poems are infinitely complex and yet completely clear—and they know what they want….iEpiphany is divine!”

    — Laura Moriarty
