Family History is a subject well used by poets, but Klein succeeds in "making it new."  It's common enough to interrogate, years later, our parents' relationship, but I have never heard the complexities of that experience so accurately and concisely expressed

With passion and immense technical control, Wendy Klein's 'Out of the Blue' takes us from Hemingway's Cuba and Viva la Recolucion, to Jackson Pollock and Disney's Cinderella.  Blue is indeed the colour of wisdom in these inpiring poems of twentieth century history'

Wendy Klein's poems take me to a ;place of dew and twighlight and liminality - beautifully evoked and deeply felt - an in-between world full of suggestion and poignancy
