Reviews

"Many styles evoke many moods - the battle-scarred indifference of a World War II troop ship entering the Coral Sea, the tentative groping towards 'the halfspeed of convalescence' of surgical patients in the recovery room, tender gratitude for friends and lovers whose intimacy is a gift as wild and unexpected as the asparagus feast of the title. And everywhere that rarity: eloquence." Susan Glickman. "Strong stuff, in meticulous verse: I was sorry to finish reading." Jay Macpherson.
