The Toronto Quarterly published a short review of Joe Rosenblatt and Catherine Owen’s dark fish & other infernos in their latest issue (issue 8).
Here’s what they had to say:
dark fish & other infernos: epistles and poems (Black Moss Press, 2011) is a bizarre and twisted compilation of madness from self-professed septuagenarian poet, Governor General’s Award winner, Joe Rosenblatt, and his equally adept protege, shape-shifting poet, Catherine Owen. These two instantly face-off, testing each others will, wit and patience. Their use of epistles (genre of letter writing) and poetry equates to a fiery determination from both the counterpunch and plunge the other into the darkest depths of their own lives and belief systems. If you’re looking for something a little off the beaten track, you won’t be disappointed.
