What's being said about Holly Rose Review, Issue Two:
Talented poet and essayist, Molly Fisk, says about the Passion Issue: "I’ve never
coveted a tattoo — I saw too many withered forearms at six a.m. on old
longshoremen in San Francisco’s Eagle Café. But Holly Rose Review tempts me.
Its images are dreamy and fierce, woven in and out of the poems as if they
always had belonged together. Browse through the second issue on Passion —
sampling pomegranate seeds from Pamela Johnson Parker, watching the
mechanical spring hook of knee from Jee Leong Koh and Cengiz Eyvazoy’s
green-faced self-dismantling Salvador Dali — and see what you think about this
intertwined ink. I like it."
On her new site, needlesandsins.com, Marisa Kakoulas DiMattia shares her
thoughts on Issue Two, admiring "the stunning Hanya backpiece on the cover"
and enjoying the audio and video features. She says, "In fact, that's one of my
favorite features of this edition: audio and video files of the poets reading their
contributions adds another dimension to the HRR experience."

What's been said about Holly Rose Review, Issue One:
Acclaimed Poet Dorianne Laux says this about the site: "Unusual, beautiful, often
haunting, the Holly Rose Review is a feast for the eyes and ears. Go there and
read Cyril Wong"s 'End Song' or Lane Falcon's 'Grace Song' or Peter Gloviczki's
haiku, 'Visiting his Grave...' and see what the fuss is all about. The images of
tattoos that accompany many of the poems add dimension. A wonderful new site
dedicated to linking the art of poetry with the poetry of body art."
Marisa Kakoulas DiMattia of Needled.com says, "I have the translations of
Neruda and Elytis strewn on the floor with my tattoo mags, you gotta know I’m
diggin the concept of this new online poetry & tattoo literary journal, the
Holly Rose Review."
Selectism.com: "A new online journal combining poetry and tattoos, the Holly
Rose Review hosts some great images. It’s a novel connection and the balance
comes off well in the initial offering."
2River View has added Holly Rose Review to its links of "high quality online
journals . . ."
Kevin Watson of Press 53 says he "love[s] what [we] are doing . . . love[s] the
idea of poetry and tattoos."
At Devil City Press, Michelle Myles of Dare Devil Tattoo and Fun City Tattoo in
Manhattan shares, "I was skeptical at first of the notion of trying to combine
tattoos with poetry, but it's pretty cool to see the tattoos used as illustration."
