Poetry. In THE KINGDOM OF THE SUBJUNCTIVE, the cruel weights of history are freshly remembered while computer-age white noise is subject to an almost lascivious forgetting. The center will not hold; the apocalypse is, was, and will be. Suzanne Wise's imagination is assertive and surprising; her sensibility extends from the deliciously funny to the austerely tragic. The music of electronic angst wilds through these poems of displacement and vicarious existence, through exposures that are reflective in both senses of the word: they encompass external mirrors of the self and ruminations that boil within. This is a poetry of info-shock confessions and blasted narrators in which urban glut and debris are compounded into monuments to nation-state and private soul, in which female space is both indeterminate and profligate. Suzanne Wise's work bristles with the struggle to define and comprehend the absurd component of evil and despair --Alice Fulton.
