“Mules of Love holds a special place on my bookshelf... It is a
book I return to regularly when I need to be calmed or soothed
because it is an openhearted volume of confessional, intimate work
that continues to reward my effort. The more the poems reveal, the
more endearing they become, and the more I read them, the richer
they get.” -Isaiah Vianese, Rattle
