Lyrical and unsentimental verse by a poet whose work "distills for us the texture of our own lives." -Daniel Halpern
"Sadoff slowly broods his books into being, and the reward for our wait is a beautifully sustained volume in which every poem seems necessary." -Virginia Quarterly Review
"Ira Sadoff's quiet and beautiful work illuminates dark corridors of ardor and memory. Emotional Traffic is a moving and hopeful book in which the bewildering stuff of childhood is reclaimed and, in focused and vibrant language, the achievement of love is celebrated." -Louise Erdrich
