'The works in Expressway are all so tightly wound, hyper-distilled and stressed ... This is poetry for the apocalypse.' -- Broken Pencil 'As a poet, Queyras is secretly romantic, writing with lyricism and a voice that's unafraid of sentiment or emotion ... Queyras' words spark like pickaxes on old asphalt.' -- Eye Weekly 'Queyras show[s] what poetry can do when it simultaneously maps roadways of transportation and lines of human thought.' -- Spacing Magazine 'Eclectic engagements characterize Queyras's work, but any suggestion of characterization of her work immediately brings a morphing to something new, intelligent, and provocative ... Sina Queyras is a poet to read and reckon with.' -- Lambda Literary Review
