Into the Sun is a magnificent collection of Colin Douglas’s poetry, a curious, enlightening, and disturbing blend of striking imagery, intense spirituality, and subtle eroticism. Dennis Clark, in a review for the Association for Mormon Letters, called Douglas a man too long in the shadows,
a remarkable poet whose work proceeds with all the clarity, logic, and irrationality of a dream. Clark explains, The elements of the dream form a coherent whole without relying on either him or us to know a system of interpretation. That is one of the things that overwhelms me as a reader. The poems do not mean, but be–a state that allows me to inhabit them …, trying to find the key to that unknown language. Colin Douglas writes, Poems of this kind can be merest glimpses through a window on the infinite and eternal and marvelous and rationally, literally unspeakable mystery of being; … of the erotic and convulsively beautiful ecstasy of Eternal Life and Creation.
