In The Short Review...

...Angela Readman writes of Mary Hamilton's short short chapbook We Know What We Are:

"I opened We Know What We Are with no knowledge of Mary Hamilton or the press. I closed it knowing it will never really remain closed. Some books aren’t meant to be. These stories are not open and shut. They are something caught from the corner of your eye, a line, a moment that stays with you."

Thanks, Angela!

Kristina Marie Darling reviews Tinderbox Lawn...

...in the latest issue of Galatea Ressurects.

"Guess often pairs novelistic techniques with poetic ones, creating a narrative structure that proves as subversive as the book's subject matter.This graceful matching of form and content proves to be one of the great strengths of the collection," she says. See her entire thoughtful take on the book here. Thanks, Kristina!
