"These poems take the passion of anger and the clarity of narrative into the silences and evasions of history…. They seek no peace. And, rightly, they allow the reader no peace."
— Eavan Boland
"Oktenberg tears down our defenses and forces us to confront the terrible human realities of the minor war in Bosnia. An artifact that is as important a human document as a poetic one."
— Booklist
"I hope teachers will discover this book and use it."

— Kitty Tsui
