"The voice in American Home is surprising, odd, and subtle. These poems of place and displacement have echoes of Ilya Kaminsky in their associative wildness. Of the staccato leaps of Victoria Chang. And their own, homegrown existential reckoning. Fig trees trained to grow in simulated Martian air live here alongside bowerbirds and hidden butter knives. I can’t resist their allure and unanswerable questions." —Danusha Laméris, author of Bonfire Opera 

"At his young age, Sean Cho A. already knows how to work the line between timing information and its elision, between the implications (of the poem) and the inferences (of the reader). This rhetorical savvy allows him a world of room to play freely with his attuned poetic gifts of wild imagination and profound feeling and render them in concert for us on the page. American Home is an accomplished beginning to what promises to be many more years of poetry worth everyone’s attention." —Michael Ryan, author of This Morning
