About Midday at the Super-Kamiokande:
"There's a brand-new law of thermodynamics waiting to be discovered in the poems of Matthew Tierney, which zip and whiz about the page with beguiling abandon. Catalyzed by the paradoxes and predicaments of the contemporary, Midday at the Super-Kamiokande forms an extended dispatch from a poet of astonishing observational powers. This book casts an eerie light from beneath its front door that will instantly pull you closer."
