“Since free verse came into vogue, many poets have forgotten that lyricism, condensed language, and wordplay are important characteristics of poetry. Vienney Carpentier is not one of them. The poems in this collection demonstrate the playfulness that could inhere in language. Vienney has a keen ear for homophones and an ability to arrange them for comic effect and poignant social commentary. The brevity of these pieces invites the reader to linger on them, the way one lingers on a fine painting. It is only then that these pieces take hold of the imagination and yield up their riches.”
– H. Nigel Thomas, retired professor of literature, poet, and writer, 27 décembre 2020
