Praise for Salt Rich:
Dunic paints a portrait that is loving and bittersweet—of two people who harrowingly escape 1950s Yugoslavia for a quiet, simple, stubborn existence living among, and off, the natural world of their adopted homeland.
—Mary Donnelly, author of Mad World Colored Oil
Salt Rich holds an entire life in its sequence of spare, yet syntactically gorgeous prose poems. Dunic manages to tell an entire history with the barest biographical facts, and yet, we know everything we need to know.
—Jessica Cuello, author of Liar
