“It’s rare that a poetry collection so expertly balances form and content, but this happens again and again on each page of Woman on Canvas. Ramer gathers up the fragments of memory and time and expertly refashions them into a perfectly crafted version of the past. Like all remarkable art, these poems flourish and bloom each time they’re read. This is an impressive and beautiful debut.”
“This remarkable collection of poems beautifully articulates the aches of human experience and goes some distance to eloquently soothe them. Ramer’s first-person voice combines with different ages and different places to build its own authority when it argues for the wisdom gained in aging. I will want to see more of this poet.”
“The best poems are our friends. Jessica Ramer’s poems are among the best: strong, generous, witty, and loving. I can’t wait to have this book as support and inspiration.”
