About Patrick's Poetry

"Kanouse's verse dances deftly through history, picking partners Archimedes, Michelangelo, human sacrifices in ancient Crete, Richard Feynman and radio
pioneer Frank Conrad."

- Gary Weir in Nuvo—July 16-23, 2003

"He blends precise images and scientific allusions with a healthy mix of historical inspirations. Outstanding is 'Richard Feynman Orders Nigiri-Sushi,' in which a scientist links the mystical components of vinegared rice and chopsticks to quarks and anti-particles."

"Portrait of a Woman Brushing Her Hair and Other Poems takes place in the eastern Mediterranean, and its environment engages the poet's five senses. Physical impressions of the region are the play of light, the flowing water, the layers of age, the "peopled beaches", the unending nightlife, and the ubiquitous reminder of spirituality in the blue-topped churches and the Christian millennium. The description of the present melds with the Greek past that is found in the absent remains of Roman burial caves, which dot the cliffs of Matala, and in the passing of the Minoans. This historical perspective contrasts with today, and there are others: life and death, light and dark, near and far. ... Crystal images as well as stark oppositions in personification and figurative as well as descriptive language all intertwined ... ["Ruins Above the Sea"] created a rush, and an exertion, of language that denoted contentiousness and high activity--"blaze", "schism", and "creation"--as well as destruction. All was then spent and unhurried in the metaphor of a slowly fluttering wasp, and history left its imprint on the normal present. These poems capture the essence of the Greek isles."

About The NOOK BOOK

"This is a wonderful resource for people who have a nookcolor or nook. However it would he better if the book was sold separately so that you could just buy the section you need plus the extras the author included about all nooks. I really enjoyed it."

- Heather Nestorick on Goodreads.com

"Well worth the price! Included coverage on things I didn't even know I could do with my NOOKcolor."

About Using NOOKcolor and NOOK, Second Edition

"I had the chance to review this book this past week. Personally, I have the NOOK G3/Wi-Fi so I concentrated so my review is of the NOOK section. I really loved the way the book is written in a friendly and easy to understand format. ... This book covers all the ordinary tips and information you would expect from this type of book and that I found out mostly by trail and error. I would have loved to have had this information at my fingertips when I first purchased my NOOK."
