PRAISE FOR MIGRATIONS:
"[Migrations] is not only wonderful poem by poem but is what the French
call a well made book: it has a trajectory and a coherence that are enviable.
The over-riding metaphor of the garden and gardening is deftly and subtly
handled, and I find myself, as I go through the poems seriatim, moved,
amused, comforted, saddened and enlightened, sometimes within the
compass of a single entry. Brava. Brava indeed."
—Sydney Lea, Poet Laureate of Vermont
