Armand's ideal poet controls not primarily with language's rhythmic music, but with how words collide and warp upon themselves ...
--Ethan Paquin, The Boston Review

The language of 'internally fissured realities' ... is dense, sound-driven, and erudite. The territory being mined is somewhere between language and geography, but there is a stubborn (and tenaciously coherent) essay on the modern here, particularly modern art. The equally tenacious reader will be rewarded by a sober sensibility.
--Andrei Codrescu, Exquisite Corpse

truly remarkable poems ... Land Partition is a book for these and any other times, a monograph in a way for those incapable of speaking to be heard and felt.
--Chris Mansel, The Muse Apprentice Guild
