Zawacki lays a lyrical path that leads the reader from pastoral southern landscapes through urban decay and back into suburban complacency. Often unpaved, bombed out or pocked with violence, this lyrical road mimics the rapid cadence and constant jostling of a fast jeep ride over uneven terrain, its a.m. radio set somewhere between dogmatic rants and shouting static.
Daniel Shoemaker, Jacket Magazine
Zawacki shows that in every object there’s the promise for a potential future.
