Trade Review"Poet Bronwen Wallace (1945–1989) describes herself in "Sentimental Poem for My Mother" as "a statistic of the sixties/ marched to ban bombs end wars/discovered Marx and Women's Liberation/abortion marijuana brown rice/ moved as far as I could/ from the suburbs." It's one of her early poems published in Collected Poems of Bronwen Wallace which also includes the text and wonder of Wallace's five published collections of poetry." Herizons
“A Collected Poems of Bronwen Wallace is overdue. This one has everything that a lover of Wallace’s work or a scholar might desire. Smart’s introduction combines a personal account of Wallace with insightful critical observations. And the volume itself is beautiful. The poems are set with ample white space around them, and the red‐white‐and‐black bindings and dust jacket have an elegant simplicity that seems in keeping with Wallace’s work.” The Malahat Review
