Reviews

[Caspar "moved to storygraph" Bryant]

Herbert is the big name here you can see that at a glance but there's a twist I want to call Nabokovian it's a brief collection so I'm not feeling full flavour & will find more Geoff but there's good work in here. All the same not quite seeing him as The Greatest English poet of the last seventy years as he's sometimes labelled ,,, that's seeming a little white from here. But I'll go further on

[Liam Guilar]

I really don't know.

There was very little to this collection. It had an interesting style and some neat parts. I just wish there had been a bit more to it.

Not my bag.
