Recensioner i media

“Rawlins is that rare being: a whole man; a compassionate philosopher, and an artist of the written word. Be sure to explore In Gravity National Park. You’ll want to return to it again and again.” -Bloomsbury Review ""As he gives himself to the ceaseless pressure of the winds and undertakes the long, bumpy roads that stretch between him and so many that he loves, C. L. Rawlins also finds a world of gritty miracles. This collection, with its cadences as subtle and shifting as the weather, vividly evokes the high-plains country of the poet’s heart."" -John Elder, author of Reading the Mountains of Home Winner of the Poetry award from the Mountains and Plains Booksellers Association in 1999.
