Poetry Northwest loves Burn This House!

Recently, Poetry Northwest published a review of Kelly Davio's Burn This House, and they had great things to say about Kelly's use of sound and rhythm.

"Clearly Davio is a skillful storyteller, adept at using sound and rhythm to their fullest potential, as she does in the poem “Patience”: “When you hear the knock on the back door, wait,” the poem begins, before moving on, a few lines later, to the wonderfully evocative image: “You will be // as a spider’s nest, squatting, moving only / in a threat to crack.” Indeed, the poems throughout this book are like nests of spiders, seemingly compact collections of words from which images and associations emerge, then scatter."
