— Appears in: Southerly , vol. 79 no. 3 2022; (p. 83-86)
— Review of Manners of an Astronaut Gig Ryan , 1984 selected work poetry ; Thirsty Weather Antigone Kefala , 1978 selected work poetry 'Just finished re-reading Gig Ryan's Manners of an Astronaut (1984), her second collection of poetry. The switches within a sentence often across lines of one expression to another, from one image to another seemingly unrelated is always deft. Jerky movements of perception brought into counterpoint "alignment," so to speak. We see all failed manners—then their contraries—dragged into the failed vision of day; failed "manners" and a desire to make sense when sense is disrupted.'
