By turns whimsical, terrifying, and elegiac, the four sobering poetic sequences featured in The Kilim Dreaming move with an acute formal and narrative dexterity, and they cast a wide net—wide enough, in fact, to engage head-on with the boundless complexities of contemporary life. These poems bear witness to the intersection of heart and mind, and they show us a poet brave enough to reach into the recesses of his essential public and private concerns. ~Michael McGriff , To Build My Shadow a Fire
Robert Hill Long tells seductive narratives. Whether they’re stories of prostitutes of opposite genders swapping their own creation myths or of a Turkish rug merchant falling into an enchanted dream of what may be the source of all Art, they enchant. His intellectual accomplishments here are stunning; the poetic craft on display something even more than that: astonishing. ~Anthony Giardina, White Guys and Recent History
