Michael D. Sollars poetry collection Falling into Starry Night reveals that the poet is endowed with impressive depths and heights of feelings, the marvelously spontaneous power, impressive precision of style enriched with sublime thought, and an unrivalled gift of song. Sollars eye of an artist avoids the obsolete or worn-out words. Walter Pater aptly comments: All art is in the long run only fineness of truth, or what we call expression, the finer accommodation of speech to that vision within.
