RECENT REVIEWS OF THE NO-NET WORLD From THEPEDESTALMAGAZINE.com: Larissa Shmailo's...poems also crackle with breathtaking language. Shmailo's expert understanding of the close relationship between poetry and drama, music and language, and the primal human need to just hear a really, really good story make The No-Net World a truly unique contribution to twenty-first century American poetry, and a CD worth listening to frequently and carefully. From LITKICKS.COM: "Larissa Shmailo has compiled some of her best work in her new poetry CD, The No-Net World. The No-Net World is a solid collection of Shmailo's intensity, heart and wit. Her poetry is careful, considered, yet powerful... The No-Net World takes you on one woman's tour of the globe, combining stark reality with lush hope. I recommend that you go along for the ride. From BOOG CITY: "Larissa Shmailo ...really knows how to write, how to read, how to present her poetry. She is masterful in the wonderfully rhythmic "Johnny I Love You Don't Die"...Shmailo's album is thoughtful, entertaining, and bears repeated listens." From POETIX.COM:"'How My Family Survived the Camps,' [IS] the strongest, the most important poem here. . . In it she describes the combination of luck and ingenuity that enabled her family to survive the Holocaust. The key poem on the CD, it gives by far the best realization of her running theme, that how we react to what happens to us is as important as the events themselves." From NEW CENTURY: Larissa Shmailo- her poem "Madwoman" with guitar on the track is pretty rad- if this isn't a Urban AntiFolk poet who is? Some of these posers just make like they've got street cred but this woman has walked on the wildside and now she lives to tell us about it. Thanks for visiting, reading, listening,and buying.
