Just excellent. I feel reading this book the way I felt when I first heard M.I.A.'s Arular--something like: This is it.

Sly off-rhymes, permutations, echoes--the most precise & exciting book of poetry I've read in what feels, as I read it, like too long a time. I wasn't crazy about Starred Wire, so this surprised me (and makes me think I need to go reread Starred Wire).
