I won this book in a Goodreads Giveaway.

I love EAJ, its small plotline of the beach and the crows, it reminds me of things I've seen standing while standing by a railing at the seaside.
I thought the separation of letters in Daydream was pretty clever. I liked that.
All of the poems were well written, I just... didn't get them. I think the deeper meaning flew over my head because I just got a sense of what I feel were depressed thoughts written down on paper. The changes between topics (from the dangers of West Wales to accents to cows to immigration) really threw me and I struggled to find that deeper meaning behind the poems.
