ONE OF THE PURPOSES OF POETRY is to make inner thought visible; the things which were previously invisible (or unknown) that can only be revealed through poetic speculation. Laura Solomon's work makes no claim that poetry is truth, while yet accessing its potential to grasp the slippery nature of reality. - Andrew S. Guthrie, author of the poetry collection, Alphabet (Proverse 2015), Proverse Prize finalist, 2013.LAURA SOLOMON'S POETRY holds a fascinating sharp edge, and much wry humour, quite a few surprises. The famous, infamous, and notorious feature here, at times they're chatty, or offering insights we'd never know quite this way otherwise, then they're tender or mysterious too. Free verse with a revealing aspect. Language adeptly chosen, original, simple, occasionally about some messy events but written clean like a new, sharp knife. - Raewyn Alexander, Prize-winner Miles Hughes Achievement Award 2014 - for Innovation, Perseverance, and Effective Involvement in Independent Publishing
