"What if you tore apart the city's tenderloin; if you seized its
ephemera and--before burning all the sweet voodoo--collected the
best, and most brilliant cuts? This is Liz Worth's stylish
master-nightmare, No Work Finished Here. This is 'the start of
something true.'" -- Lynn Crosbie, author of Where Did You Sleep
Last Night
"Liz Worth's collection of poems is a testament to both her
artistry and daily discipline. In an age of diminished attention,
her perseverance in daily poem-making by mining the same source
over and over reminds us that artists can be a model of life
without distraction--how to go deeper and deeper until you find
yourself looking back at you." -- Heath Allen, composer of ANDY, A
popera
