An exploration of exploration... Full of insight, energy, wit and curiosity... These pieces have all the rigour, mischief, candour and assured vulnerability of expert improvisation. To read Nisha Ramayya is excitement itself -- Eley Williams
Extraordinary... Nisha Ramayya is a poet who listens carefully to everything, allowing us to concentrate on the listener and heed what she tells us is heard... There are books of poetry to enjoy, but there are other books where poems are a map to living in this world, and this book is one of the best guides -- CAConrad
Oh! Mythic and mattering, melodious stuff... I have travelled, and my language won't be the same again; enchanted, relearned, remembered. Nisha Ramayya is cosmic, a one-of-a-kind, a once-in-a-generation artistic genius -- Holly Pester
If we grieved and wrote together, Nisha Ramayya asks, then what came of it? Is the place where we "intersect" or "stack" also a portal to divergence, the "impossible staircase" that is not infinitely stable? Ramayya's Fantasia is a deeply luminous, strange, beautiful and real collection -- Bhanu Kapil
Nisha Ramayya's FANTASIA not simply a quotidian basket of dice, but circulatory aphasia that whirls by endemic generation. A drone of blazing casting lingual carats descending from poetic glow blending as carats from the Milky Way, reddish via poetic incineration thus a dazzling poetic crown via seepage into higher expanse being audic circulation by trance -- Will Alexander
