Customer Reviews

Fantastic, poignant, evocative, timely

Tim McNulty has truly outdone himself with some of these rare masterpieces. Possibly my favorite poem of all time is, "Coyote at the Movies," which had me laughing myself to tears. He also has some very inspiring slices of nature that give a reader a fresh appreciation of the poetry all around us. Buy this book, you won't regret it!

This collection of poems is art on paper

Some poets write for attention; some poets send out gifts.

In Blue Mountain Dusk is one of those rarest of books of poetry, containing poems that ought to have been written, rather than poems that merely could have. McNulty is a careful poet, and the pieces in this book are the hard, clean nuggets left in the gold pan after washing and washing over and over. The love poems alone are worth the read, tender, and subtly erotic. As an observer of the natural world, this poet rates right up there with the best of the Chinese poets, or Robinson Jeffers in our own country. This is an honest poet, and these are honest poems.

Fifty-seven poems of gem-like quality

Smell the rain, hear the river crashing through the canyon,go to the movies with coyote and his friends. McNultyskilfully evokes the images of life in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest and demonstrates unflinching courage and integrity as he establishes his personal vision of the natural world and man's often conflicting relationship to it
