Tantalizingly irreverent; Camners work smacks of the deliciously absurd with a point. He is a brilliantly bizarre poet and master of the surreal. - Lenny DellaRocca The Poetry Museum Camner defies the traditional aesthetic concepts of poetry. He targets a world of ideas in a rather active way as opposed to the more passive, meditative aspects found in most poetry. There is a linguistic simplicity to his poems, an almost transparent quality, over a rather complex web of experience and thought. His poetry is life All you have to do is look The obvious and not so obvious. - Marta Braunstein, editor Cambio Literary Journal Camner writes in terse, stark, real verse that would make Hemingway raise his scotch glass in honor. - New Times Newspaper Camners poetic style is reminiscent of Raymond Chandlers detective writing; descriptive and terse with interesting plot lines. His characters are certainly the product of a vivid imagination. - The Comstock Review Camners humour noir is apparent in his poetics, his spirited voice and unabashed freedom so alive, even in his earliest poems. - Peter Hargitai A literary detour, and well worth the trip. - Village Voice
