Description: Poet Rita Feinstein builds a planet from twenty-five sonnets of lost love, and the astrophysics is undeniable. Life on Dodge is a powerful cycle of confessional verse, a contemporary radio signal to Plath and Sexton, utterly unafraid of the heat and danger of reentry after the fully interstellar escape that comes after heartbreak.
Brief description: Rita Feinstein is a graduate of Oregon State University's MFA program. Her work has appeared in The Cossack Review, Permafrost, Grist, and Spry Literary Journal, among other publications. She lives with her husband, who is a lawyer, and her dog, who is not.
Review Quotes:
Life on Dodge is a generous gift to the broken-hearted, a romp through an interstellar garden with the best of guides.
--Kiki Petrosino, author of Witch Wife
