A poet whose inner life is a torrent of imagery sweeping the reader into a maelstrom on the page-frightening to experience but one continues to read, adjusting, recognizing yet another form of speech to be understood...and finally to enjoy with admiration for the skill with which such ferocity finds itself on a page with consistent style and force.-David Ignatow

Poetry is a sullen art, and Edward Butscher knows the etymology of the word and the true root of all art...His poems are a source of strength...Butscher is out for blood. His is a no-nonsense poetry, filled with our primordial origins.-Simon Perchik
