"What Jane does is make use of the most artfully curated words yet curiously paralleled and joined in a mind-altering, heart-pulling test of spirit and tolerance. With a background in the arts she is skillful in conjuring an image. If this were a dramatization of a 1980s counterculture event, she could have been played by Judy Davis in a Post Thatcher Cinematic British film directed by Stephen Frears." - Kofi Forsun, PoetryBay
