Fantastic first collection of poems by this Irish writer living in Canada. I’m enjoying it immensely. Some of these poems are also on his “if it’s words you’re after” CD, which I’m also currently consuming. Stellar performances on the CD all around. I particularly enjoy “Umbilicus” . . . I get choked up every time I listen . . . and yet it makes me giggle. Great stuff!
