PositivePlume...candid confessionalism ... The poem conjures heartrending empathy and memory of all the times we’ve tried to seize humanity from despair ... Even as Choi writes about all the conflicting emotions in virtual sexual encounters such as these, it’s refreshing to see that she does it without shame or tawdriness. She manages to be frank and eloquent at the same time about her purpose, about her love of attention and fear of disappearing into her own image. For any poet, especially a female poet, to possess the courage for this level of craft and candor, is refreshing ... a thrilling collection, only flawed slightly by its overreach.
