Poetry. "Whether by playlet (an invention made his own) or lyric (the approximate sonnet taken for a spin), Bruce Covey has enough wit to align the discrepancies in our common parlance with the beauties of what he sees as its 'sensational sleepovers.' The laugh tracks split the sides of Mount Parnassus as we press ownward 'to the dark corners, still accepting.'" Bill Berkson"In REVEAL, Bruce Covey has gathered poems that, at first glance, pose as complete inventories of their various subjects. They're almost comforting in their promise of having thought of every way to make an egg, every kind of triangle, every phase of the moon. As the reader moves right, beyond the line's caesura of punctuation, that promise disintegrates into fantastic, surprising utterances. They resolve themselves or do not. They shine and shake and thud. Like an unhinged, urgent fortune-teller, REVEAL dares us to try our luck." Heather Christle"Beauty that finds itself in the rarest intersections in the cross between the calculator and The Divine Comedy, the fairy godmotehr and the hooligan. Intricate and clever, this is a wholly original book." Sandra Simonds"
