'These poems display subtle craft and pay homage to the gift of life. They're tough and honest at times (try Free-Thinker) and wryly self-alert to contradictions in the way we accept cruelty (Mites). They debunk mystic Eastern stuff at the same time as they celebrate its inherent value and appeal. Wrigley's care for giving others their due is evident in such poems as Ward Orderly, on the care and protection of fellow beings. Universally understood griefs, angers, and joys inhabit individual poems that take readers through appreciatively observed cultures and finely reported lands, to an overarching sense of gratitude for the opportunity to experience them. Tenderness and pragmatism are present in this work of maturity and vision by a most thoughtful traveller. I highly recommend it.' - Michael Sharkey
