“Deliciously inventive in its linguistic unfurlings Fabulosa fibrillates with ‘noir and glitz’ in these strange seductive poems that are in conversation with a range of players […] it is exquisitely hewn.”
--Simone Muench
"Sharon Suzuki-Martinez’s The Loneliest Whale Blues sings a spiraling haunting song of both the perdurability and fragility of historical biological and geological cycles with a poetic voice that is by turns tender whimsical and urgent." --Lee Ann Roripaugh
