“These poems invite the reader into an uncanny immersion within the
quotidian—akin to tasting the sharpness of sky color or watching
song penetrate office walls.”—Jamie Townsend, The Boston
Review's Summer Reading List“Warren directs her aptitude for
rhyme and aural texture to conveying the shape and expression of
human desire ('we have nothing/ between gasps/ of great need'), as
well as the political structures that have evolved through these
hungers: given the tendency of borders to 'burst open under their/
propensity for feasting,' Warren encourages readers to 'embrace
your finitude/ as the end of accumulation.'”—Publishers Weekly
"Among the wildness of sources, the syncopation found in I Love it
Though is uniquely Warren’s own and which is in vivid relation to
the English language lyric and metaphysical poetic."—Kimberly
Lyons, Blazing Stadium
