"I'm not a prophet, but I believe you have written a great poem..."
--Octavio Paz (from a personal letter) "The note on the back cover
of the first edition of Avebury describes the book as 'a series of
lyrical meditations, in which man's roots are rediscovered in the
modes of perception of earlier cultures'. This is true; but it is
also true to say that 'love defeating death' is a universal theme."
--Jeremy Hooker "Avebury freely moves through time, from
pre-textual history to descriptions of art and civilisation, in the
same way that Olson's Maximus Poems and all of Eliot's poems in
Four Quartets envision history as an event that is taking place now
and always, past and present simultaneously existing." --Neli Moody
"It was a welcome surprise to find Avebury, where I have walked
among the stones so often, placed back meaningfully on the
spiritual map." --Charles Tomlinson
