"Mark Leidner has crafted a sharp read unlike anything I've read so far this year. Highly recommended."
--Ben Spivey, Your Brain's Black Box

"It is refreshing and exhilarating to read a poet this sincere, this demanding and lucid in his aspirations toward art and his analyses of our time. Expect big things from Mark Leidner."
--Publishers Weekly

"This collection of aphorisms--concise, eloquent truths--contains so much poetry and passion and deep thinking, I've been caught by single pages for hours. This book is sharp, funny, tragic, irreverent, wise. All beauty. It puts fire in me. I invite you to enjoy that fire, too."
--Ken Baumann, Sator Press publisher
