" So when someone, especially a poet of this calibre, has the courage to put this into words, there is, for the person who has suffered like this, an experience not only of recognition but also of relief, and release: ‘At last someone has said it, at last I can put words to what I went through! And even if in one way it takes me back to the experience, in another way it sets me free, and gives me a handle to deal with it. "
