"The poems' exteriors are intranquil surfaces, edged with a wit that speaks to the benightedness of human existence, and their interiors are lined with something close to terror. Gerstler's imagery is incubated with a splendid strangeness."
Alice Fulton
"Makes me think that words are still connected to the pleasures of the weird mind in the singular body."
Alice Notley
"Amy Gerstler's poems are an instrument of perception in every sense of that word. They feel as improvisational as the best jazz."
