About A Guest In All Your Houses:
“It would be enough were Peter Ludwin’s A Guest In All Your Houses merely a sensual, spiritual geography of the human heart. But so much more, this breathtaking first collection of poems is an opulent, operatic score of the American West.”
Lana Hechtmann Ayers
“In these poems is a spirit that dives into prairie grasses and travels among root systems and bones before surfacing to speak in visionary
tongues: telling fortunes from the frozen moons of fingernails; speaking to the grainy, sepia-toned voices of windblown wives in hardscrabble 19th
century Kansas; blues-tuning in Colorado, and filtering New Mexico through a new language that flutters and swirls on wind that stings like a knife.”
Tony Barnstone
