~~~
Nolcha Fox never fails to surprise me...just when I think I've got her figured out, she throws me a curve...gives me something new (in her writing) to think about. That's a rare quality in a writer. She's not afraid to take chances. Not afraid to fail. For me, this book is a huge and shining success, and I hope it encourages you to try some of her other books as well...just be warned...her work is always different...always interesting and always new. Read this book and see if you don't agree."

- John Yamrus, author of nearly 40 books, including "Selected Poems: The Director's Cut" and "Twenty Four Poems"

Here lies a new language, both familiar and strange, foreign and domestic, sensual and banal. It is slow, urgent, ponderous, and detailed. It hits one between the eyes and in the small of the back. Nolcha’s poetry has a pronounced rhythm, felt in immediate and sparing words. Her prose is like a language from overseas, written in berry juice on delicate papyrus scrolls. Some of her words can be recognized, but not all.

Nolcha is not afraid to reveal her vulnerabilities. She walks through flames on hot coals with a crooked smile and eyes wide open. She writes of love and loss, cancer, death, and aloneness. She draws back her ornate flowery curtain, revealing a secret garden of musty midnight transgressions. We listen to her whispered thoughts as we watch her primeval dance.

She has a fantastic openness, a sense of the absurd, and an affinity for sliced white bread. She swims in a sea of strangers and secret exits, concluding, “I’m better alone.” Read "Words into Elephants" and experience her inspired rareness for yourself.

- Maxim W. Furek, author of the rock biography "Somebody Else’s Dream: Dakota, The Buoys, and Timothy," and "Coal Region Hoodoo: Paranormal Tales from Inside the Pit"
