“A fantastic collection of poetry covering many topics and forms.”

What initially seems to be a collection of poems that are difficult to read and highly atypical is a fantastic collection of poetry. Whilst there are a good number of pieces in the collection that seem to try too hard, the majority of the pieces are well thought out windows into a man’s experience.

Quite heavily influenced by war and politics the poems paint a picture that is different from other collections of it’s type. ‘His Tory’ in particular is worth mentioning, for it’s playful and rhythmic quality that combines with a noteworthy piece of political history for a great effect.

Whilst fans of the more traditional forms poetry may be put off, reading through the entire collection is a rewarding experience. However, this does not negate the one or two pretentious moments that seem to have traded content for an ‘avant guarde’ style.
