“This poet has the kind of binocular vision that can see the poetic and scientific aspects of the world simultaneously. . . . this shuffling together of lyrical/botanical and medical language is done so gracefully, it has the effect of bringing ‘the two cultures’ into a rare state of peaceful coexistence.”

Laura McCullough's book Speech Acts lives up to its title--so many of these poems take as their starting point the social occasion of a speaker wondering how to talk--naughty or nice-like?, over-educated, or heartfelt? The results are bright with velocity, lexical intelligence, and a distinctive fusion of headiness and carnality. McCullough's poems are manic, humane, and crackle with what the Reverend Marvin Gaye would have called "textual healing."
