Reviews

[Patricia Taylor · Rating 5 out of 5]

Adam Laws has penned a provocative poetry collection detailing how several partygoers spend an evening showcasing their moods and behavior. There are perceptive descriptions of pain and pleasure, delusions, attractions, secrets, and more. The reader is sure to succumb to Adam’s beautiful imagery: “The sparkles are merrily adrift within her eyes like a way of rounding up the night” (from “Shambles of Shine”). The same goes for his honest representations of the individuals depicted: “Tonight will call for us being the talk of the town for many weeks to come, I’d somewhat say.” (from “Odious Lot”). “Hours Since” is a quick but profound read.

Another lovely book!

I love Adam’s work! This was the perfect read on a mega coach journey. He writes so well and I loved the cover.
