Critical Commentary

"David Feela’s poems speak with a sort of ironic voice that allows a range of emotions...They are as unpredictable as the world we face and so are a wonderful knowing reflection of it."

–Richard Jackson, author of Dismantling Time (U of Alabama)

"They (the poems) are the work of a bemused philosopher and humorist whose explorations of some historical moments create memorable images and revelations...They reveal with a gentle touch and considerable intelligence a lot about who we are and where we’re going."

–Leslie Ullman, author of Slow Work Through Sand (Iowa Prize, ‘98)
