Reviews

Praise for A Revision of Forward

Walter Jule's visual images are aids to meditation, communicating on an intuitive level that which cannot be expressed in words. In them we experience in suspended time the knife's edge between creation and destruction."
Jennifer Dickson, C.M

"Wendy McGrath shows how a poetic novelty, the mirror poem, can become an important new form. Hamlet spoke of holding the mirror up to nature. McGrath holds the mirror up to art, but she also tells us about the nature of desire and separation, about truth and lies."
Bert Almon, author of A Ghost in Waterloo Station

"[f]ragmentary and experimental, impressionistic daguerrotypes of everyday life."
Bruce Cinnamon, VUE Weekly

"Its stanzas experiment with the visual aspect of text, spreading out across largely blank pages with their own quiet artfulness."
Brent Wittmeier, Edmonton Journal

"She has given substance top billing, and this collection is rich with detail, honing in on the most delicate, intangible moments and weaving in the raw, often conflicting beauty of city and nature, creating whole new textures with the experiences exposed within."
Quill & Quire
