"Every single poem in Before OnStar rattles around the corner like a firetruck on three wheels, siren blaring."
-Michael Dennis at Today's Book of Poetry
"Sarah Carson has an imaginative gift for transporting us within the nuances & netherworld of her hometown. I can’t imagine a more dead-eye illumination of the region—told with incredible wit & a rough-minded passion. Many might steer you from the town itself, but missing out on Buick City would be a decidedly wrong turn. I will gladly enjoy returning to these pages—and often."
-Ben Hamper, author of Rivethead, on Sarah Carson's work
