Praise for "Tableau with Crash Helmet"
"The influence of Christophersen's native New York City runs through these pages like a watermark. In some of the poems, such as 'New York Minute' and 'Absolute Bagel,' the connection is explicit, but the whole collection is shot through with the city's ambience. . . . [ The poet explores] big issues through the lens of everyday events and everyday language."
