The Empress Has No Closure
By Adeena Karasick

The Empress Has No Closure contains, as a centre-piece, the “Alefbet Transfers,” a meditative, spacial explication of the 22 figures of the Hebrew alphabet.

“All of it hums with intellectual energy, much of it is even funny.”
— Books in Canada

“An impressive deconstruction of language and meaning …”
— Canadian Literature
