While Bonazzi's poetry has been characterized by critic Paul Christensen as taking poetry to its limits of subtlety, where sense nearly but does not quite give out into silence and awe, these fictional takes are entirely opposite. They ripple with sarcasm, satire, puns, and plays on clichés, pondering headlong into the paradoxical realities of society, philosophy and art, illuminated by his heroes-Kierkegaard, Kafka, Beckett, seditious commas, and a pianist who plays only the first nine notes of Für Elise (but to perfection).
