Praise for the Author and Work
'Boulevard achieves a poet's holy mission to elevate and preserve the times one lives in with starkly rich, elegant, Hopper-like vignettes unfolding over time in the micro-view outside his window of one stretch of an American street while hunkering down during the initial period of the Covid-19 pandemic. The everyday is made new and unusual; the seemingly mundane, extraordinary. O'Reilly reminds us that poetry is the alchemy that give us light, even from the darkest moments in the human experience.'
Matt Hohner, author of Thresholds and Other Poems (Apprentice House, 2018)
With irrepressible ingenuity, Nathanael O'Reilly employs the poem as fragment to explore his neighbourhood's resilience in the jittery and ludic rhythm of life during the pandemic. Highly attentive and closely focused, Boulevard is a superbly crafted and questing poeticization of the hyperlocal-exploring the daily and seasonal tempi of the suburban and the quotidian. Boulevard is razor sharp; it is testimony, celebration and elegy.
