"All the more refreshing, then, to find a poet working within the "village" of contemporary poets but in a voice all his own; one which is unfashionable in the best sense. Internationalism breathes vigour into this work."
- Fiona Sampson in The Irish Times.

"Keeping the company of angels might bring grief to any poet, but Cotter is an adroit and knowing Artist; his verse is as likely to be soiled by a passing pigeon as enchanted by ethereal beings. He is after all, a disciple of German poetry. Rilke was Cotter's first angel when he was a youthful poet, though his language became as dark as a cadaverin a page from Gottfried Benn as he matured. Angels in this book have guarded him from the nest of rats below the diaphragm, from decay and corpses; though not from death."

- Thomas McCarthy in Poetry Ireland Review
