"A quirky, singular voice which sets the writer apart from the standing army of Irish poets." - Poetry Ireland Review ""...a dredging up of emotions, feelings and darkness.... full of separation, or the protagonists pulling away from the world around them." - London Grip "There is a very human need to be social and connect... the analogies and ambiguities are thought-provoking and encourage readers to look again at familiar situations and blur the boundaries between animals and humans... timely and engaging." - The Blue Nib "In poems that are inventive and beguiling, Dardis creates a starkly insightful version of the present, using fresh, direct language... the voice in these poems is insightful, urgent but compassionate, making the collection an enjoyable but unsettling read." - Neon Books "just f*cking hauntingly beautiful." |
