Lambda Literary Awards (2004)
A chilling and masterful second poetry collection by Mark Wunderlich, the author of the award-winning "The Anchorage "
"Sometimes the heart breaks. Sometimes"
"it is not held hostage. The red world"
"where cells prepare for the unexpected"
"splays open at the window's ledge."
"Be not human you inhuman thing. "-from "Amaryllis"
"Voluntary Servitude" asks of the beloved, "You say, Don't wreck me, and I say I won't, but how can I know that?" Here the poet is both servant and master to memory, sex, family, and the will of the lover, and the resulting poems describe the physical and psychological constraints and releases of relationships at the breaking point.

Recenzii
"This haunting book proposes to consider ardor, love, and betrayal through the lens of a particular rhetoric: the vocabulary of submission and domination, the dynamic of power and desire yoking slave and master, beast and trainer, the harnessed and the wielder of the whip. Operating in a linguistic realm that floats somewhere above the territory of narrative without sacrificing either urgency or emotional intensity, Mark Wunderlich's new collection is a bold, memorable accomplishment." --Mark Doty
