Review Quotes

"Zanna Beswick has the gift of transporting the reader through her vision (in two different meanings - both eyes and soul) and these poems do that with such quiet authority and grace."

Sarah Dunant, Novelist and critic

"She beautifully combines a delicacy of touch in her poems, with a profound and sensitive connection to the wide range of subjects that she illuminates with her work."

Christana Shewell, Teacher and therapist in voice and communication skills; author of Voicework

"As a painter I'm deeply touched and inspired by Zanna's work. She conveys insight the way many painters do, the layers of paint carrying so much more than pigment and glaze. Her poetry just stops me, as profound poetry does. I was tearful when I read 'Desert'."

Ricky Romain, Human Rights Artist
