Reviews of The Resurrection Trade

“Miller shows us how every body both reveals and conceals its secrets.”—Booklist

“Miller’s sensuous and harrowing verse brings a new truth to what she calls in one poem ‘the strange collusion of imaginary science and real art.’” —Pulse

“The raw sinews of muscle stirring at the heart of Miller’s poems were formed with soul-traveling in mind; mere flesh cannot contain them, though flesh is what inspired them.” —Star Tribune

“The Resurrection Trade is a revealing look at the one of the ways women’s bodies have been constructed over time through the eyes of men. The book remains grounded through Miller’s writing of her present day experiences that contain the humanity that is lacking in the tinted prints she has studied.” —The Feminist Review

“For me The Resurrection Trade is very much like being given a rare chance to have dinner with one of the most interesting conversationalists in the world. These poems are delightfully eclectic, learned and wise, and it is a privilege to have this fine book as guest in the house.” —Ted Kooser

“Intrinsically enjoyable, as well as socially and emotionally resonant.” —Genevieve Kaplan, American Book Review

“This is an unusually interesting collection, finely tuned on both its human and conceptual levels, the work of an accomplished poet.” —Stan Sanvel Rubin, Water-Stone Review
