Praise for Notes from a Bottle Found on the Beach at Carmel:

A unique tour de force. –The New York Times Book Review

One of the most remarkable books that I have read in a long time. –Kenneth Rexroth

Mr. Connell’s Notes are what one intelligent, sensitive artist has been able to salvage from all experience as testimony to the rather pathetic integrity of the human species in the face of extinction. The book is no manual or tract, however, although its political meaning is unmistakable, but a work of art, even a work of high art. –Hayden Carruth
