“Every poem in CLS Ferguson’s Tumbleweed: Against All Odds will move you. There is great pain here, and great joy too. There are quick, imagistic pieces that capture the moment between moments and long poems that range gorgeously for pages. Ferguson is as comfortable writing about our experience with nature as she is writing about how people deal with brutality. There is a lot to be admired here, and read again and again.”
~ John Brantingham, author of East of Los Angeles,
Mann of War, The Green of Sunset, The Gift of Form, and Let Us All Pray Now to Our Own Strange Gods
“CLS Ferguson’s Tumbleweed: Against All Odds is thoroughly enjoyable, wise, and chattering. The twenty-one poems are healing and thoughtful. They stretch boundaries and open new channels of dialogue. Ferguson rebuilds assaulted dreams, determined to do ‘the only thing she could think to do’ which is to ‘thread her needle’ and ‘stitch herself back together.’ In this collection, she courageously shares new, different, and unpopular perspectives that will haunt the reader with their honesty, and invite them to join the conversation. Read this work!”
~ G. T. Foster, author of Hip to the Gyve
“Tumbleweed: Against All Odds is alarmingly honest, witty, passionate, and smart. It’s no surprise to find so much candor crammed into CLS Ferguson’s work. Her poetry is so authentic that the poems form a person, moving like a tumbleweed.”
~ James Morrison, actor, 24 and Twin Peaks: The Return
