"In Moving Day, instead of composed, stately progressions of words, Ish Klein offers us incantations that subtly undo our sense of ourselves. Each poem is like a pack a shivering multiplicity of wolf-words in which every meaning or body or solidity is potentially open to transformation." —Brian Evenson
"Klein charts a program of action and effort while slyly integrating arenas. History, nature and self-analysis intertwine with 'a nutty someone inside'.” —Jeffrey Cyphers Wright, The Brooklyn Rail
“Ish Klein's poetry recognizes what it is to be human, and sings of that being in a new way.” —Shane McCrae, Octopus Magazine
