“Hobson’s meticulously crafted poetry invites us to renew our attention to basic human experience and to our natural environment. Those familiar with the author’s writings on the horrors of modern history or the disturbing underpinnings of the Western techno-scientific project will know that his lyricism is no mere escapism, but rather a ringing affirmation, in spite of everything, of the essential goodness of creation and a call to gratitude for the gift of life itself.”
