"The poems in Kip Knott's new collection, The Other Side of Who I Am, haul off into the depths of separation, loss, death, divorce, isolation, depression, and so many other distances that make us feel the world has fallen into pieces, that we are all broken and alone. But no matter what distances these poems depict, Knott always manages to bless us with connections in these lines, the links that bind us to life and love and hope, as ever-present as the shadow connected to our heel, or the courage connected to memory."--
