"The poems in this wonderful book trace the most subtle shifts of light, the lives of clouds and birds, with such delicacy and intensity as to make them sources of revelation. The experiences registered in 'The Light Cafe' may seem to be at the margins of the mind's usual range of attentiveness, at the edges of consciousness, but Diane Fahey's writing gives them the weight of centrality, of newly revealed depths both in the natural world and in human perceptiveness itself."
