"I used to read Kinnell a lot and started reading this book for a class. Frankly, I forgot how much I admire in his work. Clear, strong, deep poems here that are still risky."

"The poem, "Neverland," is worth the entire book - absolutely nail-on-the-heart real. Kinnell questions the absolute of death in a way that makes it as understandable as opening a bandaid or making a recipe from a cookbook you have never seen before. Precision with artistry. This book has some so-so poems, but again, "Neverland," written on the death of his sister is a masterpiece."
