Review:
With its sarcastic wit, many of the poems will make you laugh and wonder what Decker s creative mind will churn out on the next page. --Tara Stone, The San Diego Union Tribune
...Rare are those who ditch snobbery as Decker does in favor of plain-spoken yet utterly incisive, often satirical commentary on anything from Catholicism and feminism to love and longing. (Though how he manages to effortlessly switch from sketching a heartfelt portrait of a departed loved one to ruminating on Jesus' chiseled abs is beyond me.) --Maya Kroth, content editor, SignOnSanDiego.com
At times whimsical and wonderful, at times brutal and twisted, at other times pained and longing, Edwin Decker doesn't let you get comfortable. --Dave Rolland, editor, San Diego CityBeat
