A new book of poems - or of anything - by Mark Doty is good news in a dark time. The precision, daring, scope, elegance of his compassion and of the language in which he embodies it are a reassuring pleasure
W.S. Mervin
Moving, splendidly observant, and unflinching, Mark Doty's poems extend the range of the American lyric poem
American Academy of Arts and Letters
Doty's impressive range of gifts are all on show here
Guardian
Doty's new collection is immensely enjoyable, and as technically rich as ever
Times Literary Supplement
Doty's ability to meditate on the profound moments in life that co-exist in seemingly mundane situations is inspirational
Aesthetica
Succinct and moving... Effortlessly done, condensing his soul searching into neat and beautiful soundbites
