On Ex Domestica (available here):
"Cunningham's lines are impeccable: lines dense with image, with sound, and with an understanding of the numinous quality of objects and all experiences belonging to the senses." —Olivia Clare "These poems bop to a ghostly jazz. It's a haunted songbook, this collection; it's a hex against the provisional world.” —Jay Hopler “With clinical precision, E. G. Cunningham traces and dissects the intimate contours of the Self and the Other, thereby creating new topographic and linguistic records of what happens when we attempt to decipher our ‘ordinary’ lives. I will surely carry this little atlas with me for quite some time to come. In short, Ex Domestica is a truly stunning and haunting debut.” —Daniele Pantano On Apologetics (available here): “Cunningham’s work is a genre of quiet with quivering subtitles—a translation of the break in the wind, the space between breaths. In this collection there is so much sparkle, sometimes from the sun’s last glinting on the snow, sometimes the flicker on a dead doe’s eye. Apologetics interrogates the connection between nature and mind and space and home with a pure voice that wounds in its beauty.” —John A. Nieves On Oranges for Venus (available here): “Oranges for Venus is a small book of inverted poems confusing logic and idiom, climate tragedy and paradise. It’s laser and letterpress-printed using deceased trees left over from other structures. Limited edition of 150, hellbound by hand, and compact: 5.5”x4.25”. —Cameron Lovejoy, Tilted House Press.
