"Warning: south of the train tracks, a Martian dream. Stranger still, habitable worlds abound. Wander through them, the lunar greenhouse full of NASA-planted lettuce, the fields of genetically modified soybeans, the tips to save your life. Like a Martian, 'ooh and ahh at crescent moons, the meteor showers.' Absorb this motion, before it vanishes. What's staged and what's real? What mechanism clears away panic and fear from a landscape, until it awaits pilgrims? The answers, or not-answers, are within the galaxies of AMERICAN GALACTIC."
-- Monica Wendel, author of CALL IT A WINDOW and NO APOCALYPSE

"Look out, the Martians have landed! And they're having a poetic romp with Laura Madeline Wiseman. Her narrator opens the door 'with a bowl of chocolate, suckers and quarters, ' and the little green creatures move right into her house, her garden, her outings, her community... even her mind. By the end of this quirky, imaginative, and well-researched collection, you'll wonder whether we all indeed carry around our own Martians."
-- Ellaraine Lockie, author of STROKING DAVID'S LEG and COFFEE HOUSE CONFESSIONS

"AMERICAN GALACTIC is a reminder that good astronomers and great poets are driven by imagination. These interplanetary poems are rich with it, taking the reader on a trip to new, unexplored landscapes with heart and humor. Playfulness, curiosity and surprise infuse the poems, in which Laura Madeline Wiseman puts the reader right up front in the face of 'the other, ' to confront a stranger, strangely familiar."
-- Sarah J. Sloat, author of HOME BODIES and INKSUITE

"The Martians have landed in AMERICAN GALACTIC, and the more Wiseman reveals about those little green aliens and their odd habits, the more we learn about our own human nature. This collection is more fun than a Cold War sci-fi flick plus a bag of buttered popcorn."
-- Julie Kane, author of RHYTHM AND BOOZE and PAPER BULLETS
