​

After reading The Ease of Eggs, you may well look up and find the world more acutely interesting. Dodds’s poetry is a quiet advocacy for a better world.

CAROL JENKINS

 

Playfulness and curiosity mark The Ease of Eggs. The world these poems inhabit is fertile and generative and slightly out of phase, the poet’s language exact, and his subject-matter enthrallingly various.

GREG McLAREN

 

Fearless and deeply political, The Ease of Eggs is like a neon light flashing in the night.

CASSANDRA ATHERTON
