Editorial Reviews

"In this selection, the poet is preoccupied with the inner life and with poetry that probes it. The workings of memory and perception are his favorite themes, but the emphasis is on how they turn into poems." -- Bert Almon, Montreal Review of Books

"Paul Bélanger's words always rise from eyesight. Eyes are present in each one of his books. What the eyes see never stops at the surface of things, since there is no surface to encounter. His are the eyes of the voyeur." -- Claude Paradis, Nuit blanche
