Review:
"All Lilburn's meditations have that animal gusto, even at their most formidably intellectual. I suspect the book in which they've been gathered will stand as a minor classic... Poet, contemplative thinker, hot-blooded lover of trees and rivers: is there anyone else like Lilburn? The type is rare, but it's not unknown. In this country, you find a similar combination in Hector de Saint-Denys-Gardneau and Robert Bringhurst, to name just two... But Lilburn is his own man, and there is no need to strain for comparisons. Where he will go next is anybody's guess. Meanwhile, we have Living In The World As If It Were Home to be grateful for."
