Pascal vine is a raw, honest writer who plummets you into the world as he sees it. A world full of sensual, spiritual and visceral reflections on nature and humanity. He knows how to walk you into the core of the heart and leave you there.
-- Rebecca Tantony
Pascal has a special gift in how he makes language feel brand new. His poetry burns like an early morning epiphany - the clarity of his imagery enhanced by playful line-breaks that at once surprise and comfort you while reading. In ‘one way sunlight.’, he takes us from the darkest recesses of an unsteady brain to the dusty familiarity of a home town with a breathtaking deftness. Pascal’s voice is very special. It’s a voice that knows itself so well that it’s hard to believe that this is a debut. You will want to savour this collection of poems, then go back to experience them all again and again. Rest assured you will find something beautiful, delicate and new hidden in each revisit.
