O knihe

"When I read her manuscript for the first time, I was unprepared for the
concrete images: the sap from a tapped maple, the houses and butterflies and
rooms she shows us. I didn't expect mature observances from someone so
young. Robyn is engaged in the world through these poems. In the clever
parody of Poe, in her imagined banter at a men's shelter, and other narrative
poems, we find her examining, critiquing, exploring the world, the people in
it, and her relationship to it. We find her taking on characters in persona
poems where she molds her voice into those of husbands, wives, laborers, and
vagabonds. She resists the common urge of young writers to shut out the
world and look only inward for voice..."

"...often by the time our child reaches her teen years, that door is closed to us and we have very limited access to our child's view of the world. Robyn's writings give us a portal into the mind of a teen confronted with life and her views of the ever-widening world
around her."
