"Martha Ronk's The Place One Is uses excellently selected variations in form to reflect on myriad alternatives to the ways we each approach our relationship to self, and our relationship to the places in which we sense that our being resides. Ronk grounds her poems in the California in which she lives, with moving emphases on its variations of landscape, its Pacific shoreline, and how much it is challenged by the ecological crises of our time.

The Place One Is offers readers a revelatory performance. Her language is both immediate, and able to transcend this moment"--
