Review # 1 was written on 2011-07-17 00:00:00 Kevin Murphy Even though many of its contributors have lived in Michigan a short time or have moved on to new places, Michigan shines in this collection. These poems are the perfect representation of our state from bucolic bliss to the pounding machinery of urban Detroit.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-04-18 00:00:00 Johnny Tpoau While the collection is an impressive display of Clark's ability to master many poetic voices, it is in the final section, a twelve-part deathbed (or after-death) reverie titled 'Echo and Variation,' that the book truly moves beyond loving tribute and technical display to a lovely and sad look back by Keats at his life, lifting the book to a high level. --Publishers Weekly This superb book raises the possibility, unsettling for academic critics, that poems may make the best criticism. --Studies in Romanticism
