"No poet since Wallace Stevens has used poetry as a vehicle for such ecstatic thinking. In her recent books, Graham has faced up to the peril of our moment more than any other writer I know. She has become not just a brilliant poet, but an essential witness."

2017 | Rock
Perry’s heartfelt ballads feel tacked on in the face of all this weirdness. Perhaps it’s time to let that freak flag fully fly free.

"This compilation of Gray’s earliest monologues is heartbreaking and hilarious. Encountering the neuroses and contradictions Gray lays bare in this work gave me a permission I hadn’t yet been given: to accept and even celebrate mystery, mortality, and imperfection. To encounter these pieces is to be Gray’s vital witness. He needs you."

"Witness being charged by transient killer whales, stalked by wolves and walking creeks so pristine you feel as if you were the first human to experience the wonder of nature. "

"Continuing on the rock theme: I see this documentary as a document of the end of an ideal. It’s devastating and difficult to witness the end of such a hopeful era, but fascinating and extremely relevant. And on a lighter note, it’s always enjoyable to watch Mick Jagger strut around like a sexy peacock."
