"Gordon moves from the pure white milk to the mud and grime.
Dirt lines the cracks and spine of this collection in such a delectable way. "
and
"Gordon repeats the word “sweet” a
word often used to describe little girls, but it is disturbing in a sense here.
Other words like “hot” and “spittle” really deliver the tone home to an all-new
way of thinking about this particular time period as well as punching us in our
modern-age guts, conjuring up countless stories we’ve all heard about the
street harassment of women (and even young girls)."
Just a few lines from a wonderfully
detailed new review of the Blood Pudding Press poetry chapbook, "Fiddle Is
Flood" by Lauren Gordon.
