Praise for Radio Tooth by Paul Jenkins:

"Jenkins navigates poetically perilous territory by remaining more or less in his own backyard, yet his revolutions on the"treadmill of sadness and consolation" produce luminous, resonant lyrics." -Brian Henry, Harvard Review

"Jenkins' resolutions and truces are indomiably surreal; these poems - on geography, genetics, faith, and loss - are jokes and non-jokes at once, dazzingly off, yet pure reportage. -"Briefly Noted" The New Yorker

"Jenkins' poems are literally impulsive, they move in abrupt bursts of intelligent feeling, and they are aimed more at emotional fidelity than at achieving a rational, balanced perspective... These energetic poems halt and plunge forward in associative bytes, phrasing which is both ireegular and rhythmic... Radio Tooth is a collection of poems as fresh as mouthwash, spoken in a voice at once spontaneous, lyrical, and human. -Tony Hogland, Puerto del Sol
