Review Quotes:
"A series of highly attractive poems that dwell in the mundane and are edged with something sinister."--Publishers Weekly starred review
"What Blake has accomplished here is quite extraordinary: a fusion of lyric and narrative laced with a heady blend of pop culture -- monsters, zombies -- and science fiction. And it all has bearing on the issues of the day, without ever preaching, just laying out the possibilities and, even more, the worrisome ambiguities."--Frank Wilson, The Philadelphia Inquirer
"Blake does an impressive job teasing out the complications...society."--Brian Spears, The Rumpus
"error"--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"I was captivated by the intersection of motherhood, self, and humanity--including the monsters. Blake's style in this collection is narrative--a stance I admire because I think it's hard to do without drifting into prose. And 'Starship' is narrative at its epic best, its story line opening questions of desire, abandonment, choice."--Joannie Strangeland, Saturday Poetry Pick
"A striking and complex book."--Rob McLennan
