I've known Ben Kuzemka for several years now, but have never
gotten to examine his work as a writer as much as I'd like, until now.
What I enjoyed most about this latest collection Magi is its ability to
transport readers to wherever Kuzemka happens to find himself in a
world held together by memories, held together, to keep from fading
into the past. His poems are intricate, fascinating, and deeply
emotional, really what more could you ask for?
- John Dorsey, Author of 100 Mornings
Ben Kuzemka creates a world in Magi that is, by turns, humorous,
tender, and so quietly heartbreaking that I found myself pausing,
even looking away. These are unmistakably contemporary poems,
filled with references to Instagram and Costco, yet something
timeless is always at work beneath the surface. This book sings its
ancient hymns in mall parking lots and discount stores, revealing
grace in the ordinary. Kuzemka's quirky, beautiful world of Magi is a
marvel, a wonder-book, and a privilege to enter.
- Raphael Maurice, Author of Against Music
