In Summer Preserves, Diane Reid serves up a generous collection filled with guts and good taste. A genuine keeper. “Bursting at the seams with ideas…powered by energetic engagement.. There is, at the core, a control and serious attention to craft.” —Matt Robinson, whose poetry collections include A Ruckus of Awkward Stacking, No Cage Contains a Stare that Well, and Against the Hard Angle.
About the author
A guide for the Beaverbrook Art Gallery, Diane Reid is a vital part of Fredericton’s vigorous poetry scene.
