“This is fluent writing which is not pre-cast in any obvious ways and rarely brought up against its own mannerisms – calm, intelligent, long-lined verse letters that engagingly bring us to a world where the ‘sea-dusks are sea-dusks flowing far inland’.”
— Nigel Wheale, London Review of Books
“This notion of work runs throughout Harrison’s poetry. There is a sense that each poem is a hard-won moment of perception even while offering to the reader an enviable translucence, a clear vision of the world in its contingency and temporal flux. At the heart of these profound and ever-meticulously crafted poems, this long meditation into the mechanics of conception and perception, is the warmth and flesh of the complexity of life and being plainly spoken.”
—Michael Brennan
