something different to say...

\"I was pleased to see this collection of poems from Felix Onofrei arrive on my desk,as I am always eager to read anything that takes a fresh and novel approach to the form. This is a writer with a strident voice,a writer with some- thing different to say.The work is rich in surface detail and with an internal meaning and significance that is accessible to the reader;the poet creates a shared experience switly and subtly.The poetic language of this collection shows great flexibility and technical skill.The essential purity of the verse and rhythmic structure makes a sharp and effective contrast to the more thought-provoking subject matter,a contrast explored throughout,but never over used.Whatever guise the language assumes,it is unfailingly expressive,and has engaging quality of direct communication. This is incisive and imaginative modern writing. It is fresh and clearly the work of a contemporary writer, who speaks with a level of insight and irony that is admira- bly mature....we recommend this author for publication...\"
