Leland Kinsey – Burlington Free Press

Sally Pollack at The Burlington Free Press reviews Leland Kinsey's new collection of poems, The Immigrant's Contract in the "Big Ideas" section. She writes that 'Kinsey's book-length poem functions nonetheless as biography and history – and as an original and riveting form of both. His work is a strong and moving evocation of a person, a place and a way of living that exist no longer.'

    Greetings from the West of Scotland. I have just read a book of poems by Leland Kinsey who epitomises the North-East Kingdom of Vermont so accurately. He is typical of the good New England writers.
