“Nufer tells the truth, even though he knows as well as the lord above knows: the truth is over-rated. Nufer is a poet who has you in the corner, eye to eye, giving you the skinny, or maybe he’s with you at the counter, sharing secrets, his hand grabbing yr arm the more he realizes yr ok. That’s how damn good a writer he is.”           
—Thurston Moore

“Lounge is by its nature a mixologist’s soundtrack, or, as Doug Nufer—no stranger to the fillies he—might crack, a track sound for the Gin Ricky playing back bar. And here, Nufer swings..”  
—Vanessa Place

“I can’t define that book. Sometimes I think it’s a book of poetry, sometimes I think it’s a reference book, sometimes I think it’s a conceptual art piece. It flows in and out of different contexts. I believe it will be received by the poetry world, by the writing world that I’m involved with. It got really juiced in the music world. We got major juice.”     
—Kenneth Goldsmith
