'For its apparently effortless metaphorical reach I'd call this a page-breaker of a book, as long as you understand we're talking praise here, not iconoclasm. Have I read a first collection as good as this since the century's turn? I have not.' -- Don Coles, author of Forests of the Medieval World 'There is an eeriness at the margins of normalcy Helen Guri elicits with metaphors at turns daft, incisive, playful, pensive, but always unexpected. In a voice better read than explained, these poems stride confidently into the arcade of Canadian poetry.' -- David Seymour, author of Inter Alia
