Uneven, but with a few really, truly standout poems. Prikryl's work here is evocative and mesmerizing, but only occasionally. Still, I think this is worth a shot, even if many of the poems didn't speak to me; the ones that did have stuck with me for weeks.

I read this as an Early Reviewer for Library Thing. I liked the book as a whole, and some poems have definitely stayed with me. The last part of the book has a great sense of place throughout, taking me back to my Ontario roots.

This collection of poetry is the first from the author. The poems are ok, but don't have much unity. A few are standouts though, and give me hope for what this poetess will put out next. Read full review at https://onehungrylibrarian.wordpress.com

Haven't read poetry in ages. I rated this so-so one because it overarching themes and sort of ideas behind most poems were really difficult to figure out. However, a couple poems I loved a lot and definitely dog-eared for later!
