Reviews
The Guardian, Jeremy Noel-Tod 16/09/06'It's the perfect vehicle for John Haynes's ambitious and brilliant Letter to Patience'. 'Technically, the quickened but controlled pace of Letter to Patience's terza rima is remarkable'. 'Haynes's reflections are consistently mindful and sophisticated'. 'Haynes is the equal of Muldoon, Heaney or Hill, while his philosophical self-effacement is all of his own. Full of wit, learning and humanity, this is wide writing that ought to be widely known'. Poetry review, George Szirtes October 2006-10-10"Haynes's is a masterful work of both heart and head""Human, tangible, capable of deep feeling, understanding, interpretation and intellectual wonder at the same time". "Letter to Patience is a marvellous book, an exemplar of sorts; as for the virtuosity it is entirely at the service of a vision".

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
