Praise for April Bernard   "April Bernard's voice is a voice of one crying in the wilderness... striped with modern despair, loving, and knowing." --John Ashbery   "A poet of obvious gifts and power and ambition, unsparing and brilliant." -W. S. Merwin   "April Bernard brings as deep, as concentrated and imaginative, an attention as it is possible to bring to reality, history, the self, and to their triple intersection in our living language." -Vijay Seshadri    "A marvelous poet.... Bernard excels at depicting impatience, frustration, evasion and defensive invention, along with the quips and recollected details that give these feelings life." -Stephanie Burt, New York Times Book Review   "Beneath the astute formal considerations and craft, there's a writer who finds something delectable about the opportunity to shock. In [Bernard's] poems, gallows humor might fade into tender lyricism-or she might leave you hanging.... Few contemporary poets are so articulate about our primitive urges or possess the daring to leap from the top rung of their intellect's ladder." -Brian McKenna, Rumpus   "At their most electrifying, Bernard's poems portray our physical selves in union with our more rarefied desires for sublimity... admitting playfulness and humor into moments of sobering wisdom." -Tara Neelakantappa Safronoff, Boston Review
