Recenzii
"With precision and tenderness, Jarman explores the sinew and soul of humankind."
—Publishers Weekly
"In Mark Jarman's considerable new collection...[the poems] very often trace similar paths of thought and experience toward freedom, light, truth, and love."
—Booklist
"To the extent that any poet is really able to choose an authentic voice, the characteristic modesty of Jarman’s style seems cultivated—not as an affectation or an aesthetic stance, but as a strategy for sidling up on elusive, fleeting states of mind and exploring their reconciliation with the material weight of everyday experience.... Although Jarman writes powerfully about great spiritual questions, some of his most moving poems stay rooted entirely in a felt moment or a humble image."
Chapter 16
"Focusing on questions of faith and loss of faith, [Jarman] is able to enter with a quiet, unjudging sympathy into the conflicts of a wide variety of perspectives, presenting their denials and affirmations as the testimony of what it means to be spiritually alive. The poems enact an openness that is particularly welcome in a time like ours of strident contention."
