Adrian Slatcher has this to say about the poems of mine in Dear World & Everyone In It: “[while] Éireann Lorsung may seem an untypical poet to begin with; coming out of America-Nottingham; feminist in perspective, but imaginative in style, her opening poem “The Book of Splendor” is a beautiful choice.” Well shucks. Although the odd opposition (accidental?) of my feminism and my imagination—which to me are in fact coextensive—is bemusing, to say the least. Thanks, Adrian, for your words, and for liking my poem. (It’s “The book of splendor“, if you’re wondering.)
Another review of the whole book is here.
