Review # 1 was written on 2013-12-07 00:00:00 Donald Goff Lyrical poems about farm life in Maine. So many of the poems feature an awareness of light and dark; so appropriate for this time of Winter Solstice.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-04-15 00:00:00 Jonathan Villalobos An absolutely gorgeous collection. Never having read Barnes, I didn't know what to expect, but what I found were well-wrought, well-paced poems that stayed fresh and new on every page. She balances observations of the natural world with an internal, emotional focus with perfect poise. Surely and underrated poet.
