Praise for bye sea

[T]his is one of the most aesthetically pleasing reading experiences I have had in quite some time…Bye Sea is rollicking good fun (at one point I thought it may have given me scurvy!), and it is a gorgeous book object. I love themed collections, and this one never suffers from the exhausting singularity that themed poetic sequences can display.
