When Ian Cognitō "animuses", his wild imaginings come to life. His personality shines through his work to connect with the reader as he reveals flaws in the human condition and his empathy for other beings. He shows us how our connection to animals is genuine and how these creatures enlarge our spirit.-- from the Foreword by PC Vandall
Reading 'Animusings' is a potent love tonic to open our eyes and stir our slumbering attention to the natural world... 'Animusings' is a journey of the heart, an exuberant, unblinkered trek across the tender territory where our compassion, empathy, and innate kinship with the living world flutters, arcs, dives, wriggles, and spins, waiting to be untethered.-- Anne Marie Carson
This book reminds me of all the time I spent in Nature as a child. It’s as if Ian lived as a Scientist/Biologist/Botanist, went rogue, and completed an Organic Reckoning so the Artist could emerge to give voice to those who don’t have one. I have nothing but admiration for this brilliant collection. — Carolyn Dumas, Ajax Ontario
Reading Animusings is a potent love tonic to open our eyes and stir our slumbering attention to the natural world. Be warned: Animusings is a journey of the heart, an exuberant, unblinkered trek cross the tender territory where our compassion, empathy, and innate kinship with the living world flutters, arcs, dives, wriggles and spins, waiting to be untethered. — Anne Marie Carson, Blue Mountains Ontario
Beautifully put together… I can hardly wait to have this book in my hands, to be able to start my day with one or many poems. I found myself reading most of them out loud and laughing. So playful and inspired. — Donna Konosrado, Lantzville BC
