Review:
"The distinctive qualities of his voice are admirable ones. The rich aural texture of his lines, his firmly handled verse-forms, and the scope of his diction all indicate an uncommon dedication to the craft of poetry." —The Age
"Gould compels a close reading; he provokes quotation; he encourages thought; he rewards the flexible ear and the remembering eye." —Vernon Young, Parnassus: Poetry In Review
"One of Australia's finest contemporary poets." —The Oxford Companion to Australian Literature
