"This book hits the note of melancholy, lyricism, and whimsy that always gets me in my favorite art.
I loved the pacing, the way silences open up in it, the way color becomes a marker of selfhood in a grey
alienated world, and the heartache in the final wish that the letter finds its way home (wherever that is)."
“本書聲調和諧，含蓄蘊藉，情景交融，藉色彩表達作者在一灰色異鄉的清愁，
而以前路黯然，信落何方抒離情別緒，深契我喜愛藉詩歌表達幽渺情懷的藝術境界。＂
~~Srikanth (Chicu) Reddy, 美國芝加哥大學英國文學教授 Voyager 作者
“以詩人的細膩來發掘人文的情趣。
她以相機代筆，攝取那些足以使她感動的點點滴滴，⋯⋯，可是只要沉下心來，
你會體會到鏡頭下可以開拓的心靈境界，是一個出乎你想像之外的天地。＂
~~漢寶德
