Customer Reviews
Excellent Chapbook
This book was a refreshing use of vocabulary and expression. Her questioning mind creates thought plus humor. Her ability to weave mathematics and philiosophic questioning is thought-provoking. Looking forward to more of her published work!
Pure Delight
I must admint I haven't been a great fan of poetry; I love Robert Frost and e.c. cummings, but haven't read much of any other poet else since college (a long time ago!). Ms. Goodfellow's writing changes all that -- reading her work / word-play is a treat for the mind, heart and ear!
