“An elegant book, through and through. The poems tell us we are home, and about the hungry world beyond, in all its guises. I feel the caress of detail take root in me and grow, like tiny nameless flowers in a whirlwind of snow geese on a bright fall day.”
— Susan Musgrave, author of over 30 books of poetry, fiction and non-fiction, children’s literature, and most recently Origami Dove

“Every page in this book has such beauty, its place in the green labyrinth.”
— Theresa Kishkan, author of 16 books of poetry, fiction and non-fiction, including Euclid’s Orchard

“Her photography is just as exquisite as her poetry.”
— Birgit Freybe Bateman, photographer, creator of Mindful Vision, an exhibition of photographs shown at the Stroganov Palace of the Russian Museum (2011)

“Dense complexity and simple beauties walk side by side through Diana Hayes’s poems and photographs — echoing, shadowing, and brightening a life’s adventures. Labyrinth of Green is a collection of images and words that is deep, lyric, and constantly rewarding.”
— Brian Brett, author of 13 books in three genres, including Trauma Farm: A Rebel History of Rural Life
