Reviews

"Wry, tender, musical and unsentimental. . . . In these poems, the visible world radiates meaning, memory becomes palpable, and loss is acknowledged."
--Robert Pinsky, 3-time United States Poet Laureate

"Common Grace is an uncommon book, elegant, at times tough-minded, also moving."
--Ha Jin, National Book Award-winning author of Waiting

"Pays fluent loving attention to life and art--and their rewards glow!"
--Gail Mazur, author of Land's End: New and Selected Poems

"Here is a poet of clear-eyed originality, big-hearted and wise--and a book to read again and again."
--Matthew Thorburn, author of The Grace of Distance

"Announces Caycedo-Kimura as an important new voice."
--Jennifer Franklin, author of No Small Gift
