What a lovely review - and the excerpts are treasurable. And what better endorsement of a poet than this: "I’ve read it from cover to cover over the past few weeks and have now gone back to read more slowly from the beginning. Why? Because I enjoyed it. Because it touched me. Because it made me chuckle. Because it made me feel happier about being in the world despite the way the world is." I shall definitely be reading him - he sounds essential!
I wasn't familiar with this work, but you've made it very tempting. Thank you.
A wonderful introduction, thank you, this is certainly on my wish list now
