Poetry. "In his one-line poem 'For Joe Ceravolo and Mona Da Vinci,' Sotère Torregian writes 'I sleep in you Great House that sleeps.' Torregian's work is most often situated here, in the Great House of teh Earth, many-mansioned with oceanic awareness, multi-storied with meditations on—and meditations of—human beings. His version of surrealism transmogrifies the desire for otherness into desire for the Other."—Andrew Joron
