Publisher : This collection of poems is sharp and witty and filled with pop culture imagery from a Midwestern childhood spent “Not from the wrong side of, / but right on the tracks.” (“The 3:15”)
“I enjoyed the flair, bawdiness, sensuousness, and plain sense of “Vendettas, Charms, and Prayers.” There is plenty of trouble in these pages, but it’s a’large life.'”-Alicia Ostriker, author of “The Crack in Everything”
“With colloquial verve and a distinct and often hilarious voice, Pamela Gemin builds poems of novelistic detail and stunning emotional depth. Gemin is a genius of memory.”-David Graham, author of “Second Wind”
“One hears in [Gemin’s poetry) the irrepressible reverberations of rock and roll. These poems make no apologies for their raucous femaleness, their unabashed courage to say, ‘Here I am.'”-Victoria Redel, author of “Where the Road Bottoms Out”
