"The Other Love" is frank, funny,
unsettling, and tonally virtuosic in its artful critique of the present moment, offering the imperfect individuality of the
poet as a moral counterweight to the violence that the powers that be are inflicting upon the world.

These are hopeful and gilded poems, managing to suggest the rich life of the mind
but never abandoning the body ... "The Other Love" reveals a new edge to Cole's voice−composed, taut with
nerves, but tempered with wisdom ... These are exemplary lyrics of witness." —Publisher's Weekly
