'Robert Adamson is one of Australia's national treasures.' -John Ashbery


'He is as deft and resourceful a craftsman as exists, and his poems move with a clarity and ease I find unique.' -Robert Creeley


'This distinguished man of letters and major poet is one of the most significant gifts Australia can offer the rest of the world.' -Nathaniel Tarn



'The spareness and taut energy of the more recent poems, for all Adamson's famous romanticism, seems classic; as if, like Yeats, he had discovered the exhilaration and enterprise of walking naked.' -David Malouf
