"The Man with Night Sweats "is a haunting depiction of a world ravaged by illness that is part elegy for those who have been lost and part evocation of the changes that await those who survive. It is also one of the few works of literature that have fully met both the aesthetic and the moral challenges that the AIDS epidemic poses. The nobility and sobriety of Thom Gunn's forms enhance and underscore the gravity and pathos of his subjects. The results have the cathartic and healing power of great art.

William Morris and A Million Worries
评分"I have to change the bed, / But catch myself instead / Stopped upright where I am / Hugging my body to me / As if to shield it from / The pains that will go through me, / As if hands were enough / To hold an avalanche off. " 第四部分直接記錄瞭艾滋肆虐年代裏肉身的苦痛與彆離的悲愴，詞句不事渲染，讀來卻很沉重感人。
