Reviews

"The sumptuous, sensual poems of Alix Klingenberg will transport you to another realm you never even knew existed inside yourselfa place of self-love, creativity, and unapologetic expression. She shows us over and over a love so bright, it can light up whole cities, not a particle/or a wave, but somehow/both at once. Her poetry urges us all to stretch and grow, to become larger than we might have imagined as we try again and again/to be more than one thing, for ourselves and each other." James Crews, author of Kindness Will Save the World
Alixs work feels organic, like soil between your fingers, or the smell of moss. Her writing makes me nostalgic for classic poetry, while still remaining unquestionably contemporary and relevant to modern readers. J. Warren Welch
Bread Sex Trees is a book of fingertips and treetops, old scars and pressed flowers, intimacy and magic. There is longing and regret in these pages alongside stubborn hope and acceptance. Klingenberg scouts out the tension between what is beautiful and what is infuriating about our own limitations, crafting meaning and identity along the way. This is a lovely, powerful collection. Jarod K. Anderson, author of Field Guide to the Haunted Forest and creator of TheCryptoNaturalist
