Reviews

[edit]

Laura Farina's debut collection, This Woman Alphabetical, is at the forefront of this neo-Modernist sensibility. The biggest strengths of Farina's book are the predominant imagist and surrealist impulses in her poems. ...it is a surprising, if not controversial, choice—probably good for poetry in Canada, and definitely good for Farina.[1]
