Review

"'Satan is a Mathematician' is a haunting masterpiece -- a fusion of poetry and science, and a flight into an exotic universe of dream and desire. Daniels' book will linger in the mind long after many other books are forgotten." -- Clifford Pickover, Ph.D.

"...poems of far-out imagination, of deep horror, of strikingly bizarre explorations of dream and possibility. They overwhelm the mind at times. With all the strangeness and rigmarole, it is easy to miss how concise and focused some of the works are. The reader who enjoys this kind of writing would be hard pressed to find a better source." -- C. Darren Butler -- Pyx Press

"Daniels' poems are characterized by breadth of vocabulary, by the straddling of lexicons, and by an inventive attraction to the uncanny." -- Richard Wilbur, former Poet Laureate of the United States

"Some poems are 'far out' -- but not Keith Daniels' poems. They reach far and out and bring back to us... meaning, strangeness, melody. Keith Daniels writes evocative poems of all the worlds fertile minds may imagine." -- Prof. Roald Hoffmann, Nobel Laureate in Chemistry
