"Canavan's lyric voice is strong and sure, almost lilting, certainly musical, and provides a metrical spine that can hold up any subject."
Patricia Monaghan, Booklist

"Canavan understands the power of the lyric; her poems overlap and fuse, creating an, at times, rough and richly patterned collection. Colour is everywhere, used as the painters brush to transform, to make real"
Poetry Ireland Review

"Throughout this impressive collection the attentive reader will be rewarded by her capacities for sharp observation, low-keyed, economical wording, and carefully restrained ironies, whether writing about truck drivers or nurses, Cork patriots or Welsh ironies."
Irish Examiner
