Reviews

""Reveling in poetry's tendency toward 'bloat' and excess and not-yet-normalized syntax, this propulsive debut collection showcases and delights in the poet's mad wit. Through Cavar's serious humor and playful theorizing and clever attempts to 'outwit' Gender, psychopower, and 'commonsense,' Differential Diagnosis offers all of us who sense that we were ""born in the wrong episteme"" strategies for making and making 'where the nameless live.'"" —Cameron Awkward-Rich, author of An Optimism
