Critical receptionWriting in the Sydney Morning Herald poet Bruce Beaver said of this collection that Campbell's "lyrical sense has never let him down. The earlier poems indicate and impeccable ear, the later, if anything, an intensification of the singing gift allied with a metphysical cast of mind." He finished his review by calling Campbell a "uniquely lyrical and versatile poet."[3] Awards
