Review
"...this is poetry of immense vision... wild and elegant art whose elemental life can scarcely be confined to the page"--The Times
"Bringhurst's work encompasses the world with its passionate curiosity; the blend of head and heart, make it [...] completely unique."--The Times
"Reading Robert Bringhurst's poems is like breathing pure air. That he is the 'real thing' there is no doubt. He hopes to map the mind, get to the heart of things, strip bones bare. Words, he acknowledges, get in the way. This is the ultimate paradox for a writer with such a gift"--The Observer
