RaveChicago Review of BooksAs a poetry editor, I receive a lot of poems about the presidency, many of which are stunning and urgent, but rarely do I see ones so direct as in this collection ... While there is still nuance in these poems, they speak to the president bluntly and without apology ... While these poems candidly condemn Trump, they are surprisingly playful and lyrical. The sonnet, which means \'little song,\' proves a good form for this collection ... American Sonnets for My Past and Future Assassin does not just condemn oppression and hatred, it also makes space for celebrating joy.
