About the Author:
Jeremy Dae Paden was born in Italy and raised in Central America and the Caribbean. He received his Ph.D. in Latin American literature from Emory. His poems have appeared in such places as the Atlanta Review, Beloit Poetry Journal, Cortland Review, Louisville Review, Naugatuck River Review, pluck! and Rattle, among other journals and anthologies. This is his first published collection of poems. He is an associate professor of Spanish and Latin American literature at Transylvania University in Lexington, Kentucky and a member of the Affrilachian Poets.
Review:
The poems in this fine collection view love as both a desire and a dilemma, the kind of passion found in other poets willing to confront the heart with such honesty, namely Neruda. If desire is ever perfect, it is only perfect once -- and then what? That last flicker of a question is a sharp yet satisfying pang running through these poems. Meanwhile, behind the intensity shared by two, we have the wider world, which is either indifferent or falling apart. These poems are not simply wise or desperate -- they are both at once. --Maurice Manning, Author of The Common Man

In Jeremy Paden's work, a finely-tuned intellect and a capacious heart join forces, so that precision and craft are brought to bear on a gorgeous lyrical extravagance, giving us poems that are at once graceful and surprising, unabashedly romantic and unashamedly erudite, sensual and sharp, flowers growing from the cracks in stone. --Cecilia Woloch, Author of Carpathia
