Reviews
Finalist for the Believer Book Award in Poetry "Testing the bounds of relationships and identity, Toliver displays her linguistic gifts in poems that resist egotism and startle with their intimacy." --Publishers Weekly,starred review "Ashley Toliver's collection pushes at the elastic boundaries of the self, the domestic and natural worlds, revealing a porousness that could serve us well as an ethic rooted in connection." --Little Infinite "Like hands running over a strange surface in a dark room, the language of Ashley Toliver's mesmerizing debut collection, Spectra, is constantly searching--the phrases, logics, and images coalescing only to disperse and transmogrify: 'I say to the dark / look / everything is turning / into everything else / moth shuttled inside / an empty glass / paper slid over the mouth.' In 'Housekeeping,' the linked series of prose poems that run through the first half of the book, the poems take on a dioramic quality, tableaux vivants marrying the domestic interiors of a life with the natural world. Toliver's innovative, open forms and imploring phrases accommodate the linked intricacies of mothering and loss. While reading Spectra I was reminded that feeling one's way through the unknown can itself become a kind of unparalleled knowing." --Claudia Rankine "Here is a book full of careful attention to what has been called the natural world, how it begins in the poet's own body, ravels into a house, a marriage, and extends out into the continents. Like those of Bishop's mapmakers, Ashley Toliver's colors are 'more delicate than the historians.' They are also certain, meticulous, and--it must be said--just absolutely beautiful. Reading Spectra makes me feel like Toliver has stitched a new constellation into my mind; she has written that much dark, that much light." --Heather Christle, author of Heliopause, "Here is a book full of careful attention to what has been called the natural world, how it begins in the poet's own body, ravels into a house, a marriage, and extends out into the continents.

Synopsis
Generous, penetrating, relentlessly sonic poems that record the creative potential of the body and the boundaries of the self., "Housekeeping" Tepid blow cools the liquid to hunch and wind. A box arrives and loaded spills order across the Jloor. Living room, dining room, room of tinder and kindling. The joints grind to aspirin under the whitest application. At night I place oil over all the door hooks to make for swifter leaving. Kerosene opening, I saw it coming and took Jlight. Ashley Toliver is the author of the chapbook Ideal Machine . Her work has been supported by fellowships from Oregon Literary Arts, Cave Canem, and the Academy of American Poets. She received her MFA from Brown University in 2013.

Communication from the seller was prompt, polite, and helpful, with dispatch confirmed quickly. The parcel was securely packaged and arrived in excellent condition, ahead of the expected delivery date. Care was taken at every stage of the process. I would be happy to buy from this seller again—many thanks for a reliable and well-handled sale.FINLAND AND EUROPE: INTERNATIONAL CRISES IN THE PERIOD OF By Juhani Paasivirta (Nr. 335694307643)
- a***2 (13)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufItem was shipped quickly and packaged well. Item was exactly as described, brand new and it was even sealed. The seller also messaged me as soon as the purchase went through so communication was great. This was the last book in the series that I needed and to be able to find it in such great condition and at a great cost was unexpected. Highly recommend this seller and will definitely buy from again in the future.MARTIN THE WARRIOR (REDWALL) By Brian Jacques - Hardcover **BRAND NEW** (Nr. 187149385105)
- t***s (44)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe Item itself I rate five stars. The seller, however, I stop at four stars. The seller met two out of three categories I look for when judging my purchasing experience: how well it was packaged, how quickly it was shipped, and how properly it was described; this seller provided prompt shipping and an accurate description, but failed when it came to packaging. The item arrived in a plastic bag without any reinforcement or protection whatsoever and suffered dinged corners on multiple fronts.
