“In her debut collection of poetry, Shimming the Glass House, Helen Pruitt Wallace explores the fragile spaces in which we live, and the ways we attempt to shim–or at least come to terms with–the cracks in our homes, our relationships, and our world.”  Laura Donnelly, Third Coast.

“Shimming the Glass House is a book not to be missed.”  Mike Walker, North Florida News Daily, December 15, 2008.
