Back of book quotes
“Read at your peril. You will never look at this world in quite the same way again. Your eye will instinctively search the sky for eagles and scan the dark earth for the slightest movement of smallest ant, your heart will reach for tall mountains, bathe in the most intimate of passions and in the grain and grit of our earth. Such is Allison Grayhurst. Such is her poetry,” Eric M. Vogt, poet and author.
“Grayhurst is a great Canadian poet. All of Allison Grayhurst’s poetry is original, sometimes startling, and more often than not, powerful. Anyone who loves modern poetry that does not follow the common path will find Grayhurst complex, insightful, and as good a poet as anyone writing in the world today. This, and other Grayhurst poetry volumes are highly, highly recommended,” Tom Davis, poet, novelist and educator.
“Grayhurst’s poetry is a translucent, ethereal dream in which words push through the fog, always searching, struggling, and reaching for the powerful soul at its heart. Her work is vibrant and shockingly original,” Beach Holme Publishers.
Reviews Trial and Witness – selected poems
“The title was well chosen for this collection of Grayhurst’s poetry. Many of her poems eloquently elucidate the interweaving of setting and role suggested by “Trial and Witness”. What’s more, the breath of roles covered is exceptional. Even poems covering similar perspectives are able to express subtle distinctions, distinctions which add depth to the collection’s larger themes. This cohesive psychology of the poet is clear, allowing for long reads and re-reads,” Patrick Linsenmeyer.
“Some superb poems in this book. I would highly recommend it,” Mark Heathcote.
