'Sophoetics: Philosophy Poems thinks uncannily as a collection, wondering what exquisite and gruesome facts of the universe give us our everyday experience. J. Martin Strangeweather addresses this question smartly askew, often funny, and always skeptical in a mode that is more psychedelic than it is Sextus Empiricus.'-Daniel M. Gross (Professor of English at University of California, Irvine, and the author of Being-Moved: Rhetoric As the Art of Listening)
