Recensioner i media

Handbooks of this kind rarely – if ever – give the poets themselves the microphone. I wish more would follow The Bloomsbury’s example. The questions poised are provocative and the answers illuminating (and sometimes suggestively elusive) ... A charming, idiosyncratic, and weirdly seductive map to a whole lot of poems.
