"The Farther Shore is eloquent, accomplished, fully articulated poetry. ... Kane's poet voice is grave, gentle, perfectly modulated and almost infinitely sensitive and accurate." Harold Bloom.

"Forty-two disturbingly quiet poems, mesmerizing in their opaqueness, about what it is like for us to live 'so far beneath the sky.' In Paul Kane's verse, a dark echo of Robert Frost is sounded in a thoroughly modern landscape." Joseph Brodsky.
