“ A jolly satire of sentimental poetry. Weagly executes a lush conceit with a structure of dialogue that just heightens the comedy -- it's hilarious to read the sharks' shifting responses to the poem as they hear it for the first time. Would recommend to any amateur biologists, Monty Python fans, or former literature students who'd like to see Herman Melville's verse receive a lashing. ”

“ A clever, frightening drama about the distinctions we make between the personal and the ideological. Gatton's characters are complex and recognizable. The torment they experience -- at the hands of others and themselves -- is palpable. As superhuman forces aggravate the rifts in their relationships and push them past the bounds of polite society, ALEXANDRIA offers a uniquely 21st-century perspective on diverse friendships in divisive times. An intense and rewarding Pride Month read. ”

“ The slowly-revealed similarities between a child of immigrants and his seemingly insensitive teacher are exciting in this period drama about names, culture, and individuality. The tension between Deng and Ms. Desjardins is compelling from the first scene. As their conflict develops into understanding, Yeung presents the early days of a still-present struggle many have with names and respect. ”

“ Ehrlich conjures lovely comedy from an unlikely friendship in this charming platonic rom-com. It's hard not to smile as the relationship between the cynic and the romantic develops. I finished wanting more! ”
