About Mechanical Cluster:

"The poems of Patty Seyburn are filled with a strange, ambitious, and compelling music made of the mythic, momentous, and mundane days of our lives. The poems arise from the gold sun and surf of California, the skies filled with western birds, but the poet finds illumination also in 'the grid of lights and land/known as Detroit.' This is a remarkable book."
—David Citrino, The Ohio State University
