Press

“…an eclectic writer of great talent and broad subject matter who serves up poetry with a lyrical and narrative focus that, much like an obsidian knife, presents a dark edge about a thousand times sharper than a scalpel.”–Michael Meyerhofer, Poetry Editor of Atticus Review

“Jenny Qi skillfully differentiates what can and cannot be eulogized, as understood by the narrator.”–Ting Gou, MD on “Writing Elegies Like Robert Hass”

Additional coverage from the Intima contributors.

“…perfect little examples of well-crafted work.”–The Review Review

“Qi makes great use of descriptions in this poem. Every line radiates with heat.”–NewPages.com
