About Each Thing Touches:
"With Each Thing Touches, Frazier offers us a work at once powerfully felt and powerfully informed by feeling. This is a textthat swells with human life and human loss and human love--a book born of the weight of the body, but brought aloft by themeditative mind."
"Frazier illumines the darkest corners of memory, bearing apt witness to remembered experience with uncommon clarityand sureness, each poem a gem cut and polished to a fierce brightness. He revisits childhood again and again through a truepoet's lens, seamlessly fusing his narrative and lyrical gifts. In poem after poem, he insists on uncovering the radiance buriedbeneath the questions."
