Reviews
Brevity, oddity, familial joys and intermittent worries, and delight in rural space have come to be what we expect from Fishman.

—American Poets
Lisa Fishman is a writer who works —confidently, brilliantly—in close-up, often phrase to phrase, building texts that knock you over with their rhythms & insights even though it would be very difficult indeed to paraphrase what she’s doing.
