"Peter's Eternity Road is fierce, political and sassy--definitely worth 15 cents in the pocket." — Flo Kennedy * * * "Chelnik's poetry reflects the rhythms of urban American life, its frenetic pace, its roaring energy. This is a poet whose roots go back to Whitman and Ginsberg, a poetry crammed with specific details that sensually recreate the poet's life and places in which he lives it. Chelnik is a unique and often startling poet." — Maria Maziotti Gillan * * *
