“We take our pleasure as we can,” Karen Hildebrand writes in the title poem to Crossing Pleasure Avenue, in a voice filled with desire tempered by loss. And there is much pleasure in this book of terse lyrics that engages the reader with humor, brio, and bite.” —Sharon Dolin
Hildebrand honors the women who have come before and the women who we are. She is funny, fervent, and fierce. Crossing Pleasure Avenue is delightfully profound. I’d take a walk with her poetry any day! —Denise Duhamel
“Crossing Pleasure Avenue, reminds
us of the strangeness of the everyday and the pleasure in those ripe moments
when the past and the present buckle and overlap.” —Joanna Fuhrman
