Watermelon Kindness - Poems - by D. Donnell

Editorial Reviews
Review

"[Donnell is] a worldly Epicurean by temperament with a hearty appetite for food, love, the arts and bourgeois pleasures. There’s social comment here, too, but more from the perspective of an editorialist than an activist." —The Toronto Star


"The best poems here are unquestionably great, and it’s good to see this, possibly the largest of Donnell’s poetry collections in some time . . . Donnell’s poems are conversational koans, sometimes meaning nothing, meandering from meaning to meaning, topic to idea, bouncing off, sometimes." —Prairie Fire Review of Books
