The Fall 2010 issue of Pluma Fronteriza, a newsletter of Chicano(a) and Latino(a) writers of the El Paso and Cd. Juarez Border Region, features this review of Ray Gonzalez's newest prose poetry collection, Cool Auditor:
"Fusing the real with the surreal and the natural world with human relationships, Gonzalez creates his own brand of magical realism. Gonzalez also brings pop humor in such poems as "The Guitars," which uses the word "guitar" in almost every sentence to talk about the true (and not so true) lives of rock stars. David Lazar notes, 'Ray Gonzalez may be our most essential prose poet.'"
