"Honest, funny, timely little stories. Raw. These poems read as if composed of the broken speech scattered around the edges of a very big Quiet. Funny, insightful, playful and painful at times. Who is Hector? I'll let you find out." - Malcolm Van Delst, Author of Do the Wrong Thing
"Cocking's poems are well-honed, like a scalpel. Sharp enough to slice cleanly to the heart; to dissect her subjects and lay them open for you to see their inner details." - Christine Grimard, Contributor to Saving Seeds
"Hollering back at paltry domination, the poems in Hector transgress the fictions of now with rare and essential human things: truth, brilliance, thought and heart uncompromised. Here, intensities of knowledge & experience burst traditional confines and reset us, call us out, insist a world with all of us in it." - Shauna Paull, Author of roughened in undercurrent
