…unflinching, unsettling and precise

Disturbance is a book of dark intensities and deeply felt connections, haunted and haunting, at once brooding, sensual and lucid.

Ivy Alvarez’s work poses poignant questions about humankind and existence in a humorous but lyrical way.

This is a dark book but also compelling and, unlike many poetry books, is a page-turner.

Alvarez mingles the earth with animals and sounds, with someone’s mouth — it is a dream dictionary.
