"With their passages of beauty, adept handling of words and insights into the natural world, many of these poems are bullseyes. I read them under difficult circumstances and they entraced and comforted me." Gillian Somerville-Large

"Although a first book of poetry, One-Song is mature and accomplished. Frances Astor's clever invention of words and wonderful sensitivity to the land and sea around her have given us a fresh, wise and often witty approach to environmental concerns and human follies." Naomi Beth Wakan of 'Haiku - one breath poetry'
