"I felt lucky when "Pass Thru Fire" arrived at my door. It made my day."

"Hartford Advocate", 3/7/09
"Perusing this 576-page volume should be a lesson in humility for any aspiring rock poet."

"New York Times", 11/13/13
"In a 1987 interview, Mr. Reed talked about seeing his record albums as chapters in one huge, long novel: 'They're all in chronological order, ' he said. 'You take the whole thing, stack it and listen to it in order, there's my Great American Novel.' "Pass Thru Fire", the recent volume of Reed's collected lyrics--dedicated to 'L.A., ' Laurie Anderson--provides another version of that novel, and even without the essential soundtrack, the lyrics possess a remarkable organic coherence, charting a harrowing journey through the bohemian underworlds of New York City, through the ravages of heroin and speed, and emotional terror, fury and aloneness--and toward something like grace."
