This is a very fine book. Jesse Butler has put his mastery of traditional poetic form to good use in these varied reflections on faith, personal tragedy, encounters with nature, life in the modern Canadian suburbs and many other things. These poems reveal a mind expansively curious about the world and deeply attentive to it.

Religio Poetae, Part 4: Dale Nelson delivers another fine study on Patmore’s classic and its influence upon Arthur Machen.
New Books of 1914: Roosevelt takes an interest in prize-fighters, Roosevelt can climb high cliffs; all his achievements of this sort are here set down, together with his part in the Spanish War, and the comfortable doctrines of the Big Stick and the Square Deal. It is all splendid if you happen to be a professing member of the Roosevelt faith; to dissenters from that crude credo it is perhaps a little excessive and superabundant.
