"[Grey Gowrie] rages movingly against the dying of the light, covering heroic distances and charting epic struggles in... unflinching and atmospheric pages. Grey Gowrie's poems--utterly free from any querulous or self-pitying role--touch the reader's own heart as they give voice to the 'poor, bare, forked' individuals who are enmeshed in the tubes and wires of machine-age medicine."--Times Literary Supplement

"Gowrie, like Byron, is a wit. I can't remember when last, if indeed ever, I dared use the 'masterpiece' of the work of a contemporary. I do so now . . . "--Jon Stallworthy "Poetry" (1/1/2013 12:00:00 AM)
