"Sublimation Point is like a perfect pop song, making the listener glad to be alive. Schneiderman.. has Anne Sexton's directness, Max Jacob's eye for incongruity. Tragedy enters the picture, and becomes the frame: nowhere do these poems forget their nemesis, mortality." - Wayne Koestenbaum "Grave, sweetly questioning, often irreverently funny, Jason Schneiderman's poems about love and death, the Holocaust and family history, self knowledge and self deception give this book a range and tonal variety that is extremely rare for any poet, let alone a first book: Schneiderman has imagined his work broadly, and executed it with great skill, passion, and intelligence." - Tom Sleigh"
