"As the titles of this and her four earlier collections indicate, Deb Westbury is very much a poet of the senses. In 'The View from Here', 20 years of observation and experience, love and loss, have been transformed into poetry remarkable for its clarity of vision and depth of emotion." (Elizabeth Webby) "Deb Westbury's poems sing with insight, with clear observation and a stylishly agile turn of phrase." (Brenda Walker)
