"What an absolute pleasure it is to read Michael Robins' In Memory
of Brilliance & Value. His musicality is rarely paralleled, and
'the voice releasing indelible things' sings songs of real
experience."--Noelle Kocot
..".In Memory of Brilliance & Value reveals itself as an erotic
testing ground of experience in and of language. Here is an elegy
for the clear light in which what matters most is revealed, a light
no longer wholly our own; here are poems filled with that wound
called nostalgia, longing for experience that had once been
whole."--Dan Beachy-Quick
