"The thike, Claire Crowther's imaginary creation, 'broods, plays, and is "othered" by an uncaring society'. The poetry that appeals to Crowther, and for which she acts as such an eloquent advocate, often does the same. The essays of Sense and Nonsense are passionate acts of elective affinity, precise and careful homages to kindred spirits from Lorine Niedecker and Veronica Forrest-Thomson to Denise Riley and R. F. Langley. Carrie Etter's forensic interviews send us back to Crowther's own poetry, and remind us that she is entirely at ease in such company. Generous and gladsome, a gift of a book." -David Wheatley
