“I love this book. Assured and expansive, Amadon’s sonnets achieve an exquisite balance of rigor and ease. Each poem drops the reader into a mind where inner climate and outer climate are often indistinguishable, and where weather becomes both subject and method. Attentive, embodied, and turning with the turning of seasons, these sonnets are alive to the conditions that make thought itself possible, issuing an invitation to fall in love with living again and again.”

Cecily Parks, author of "The Seeds"

“Amadon’s Divers offers a scintillating collection of sonnets that breathe as fluidly as flutes in a cathedral foyer. Through a Whitmanian musicality pulsing with intellectual curiosity, tuned to the organic world’s quiet rhythms and inner weather, each poem acts as a station for language and consciousness modulating each other into a higher order of understanding. The result is a world dis-alienating poetry that thinks with the world, instead of about it.”

Rodrigo Toscano, author of "WHITMAN. CANNONBALL. PUEBLA."

“For centuries, the sonnet has provided the joy of exuberance within the constraints of received form, and Amadon’s Divers extends the tradition of the art into a world that is familiar but, in his hands, is also newly strange. With language that is spiked with an intoxicating spirit, Amadon’s new work is both stimulant and balm.”

Mark Wunderlich, author of "God of Nothingness"
