Remarkably unsentimental in their assessment of mortality and an aching confusion about the hard edges that lie just beneath of the world, the best of these poems address their subjects in timeless manner and voice, despite being very much products of their era. The Human Condition is that rare thing, an honest book. Rick Bass, author of Nashville Chrome

This is a wise book, dedicated to language, to the at of reflecting on life and that which has been lived. The human condition is reinvented in a lyrical speech that dazzles with its capacity to contain the world in the mind's emotions. Eduardo Espina, author of El cutis patrio, recipient of the 2007 Latino Poetry Prize

The Human Condition is a magic carpet ride to the ends of the earth. It's hard to describe how much experience, how much wisdom, are to be found within its pages. Whether talking of Ovid or Osama bin Laden or the dry landscape of Texas, Christensen shows us that beyond all imagining, life is a relentless teacher. Morris Berman, author of The Reenchantment of the World
