- Book Synopsis
- "What a beautiful book this is! It's just dizzying, amazing, and I love the style! The words literally jump off the page as I am reading. Never read anything like this before. Wonderful work!"-Noelle KocotAuthor of Ascent of the Mothers"An heir to the Bretonian impulse of 'the marvellous', Tony Kitt electrifies impulses both human and galactic. Sometimes socially conscious, his stunning poems avoid expected diatribes, unfolding into complexities of what could be. He offers an uneasy wisdom and a certain kind of Surrealist playfulness/absurdity that moves into profundity."-George KalamarasPoet Laureate Emeritus of Indiana"Tony Kitt goads grammar to the edge of the precipice and then teaches it to fly, with one wing dream and the other all edgy attention."-Oz HardwickAuthor of The House of Ghosts and Mirrors"His work as poet, translator, and anthologist has greatly enriched Irish poetry."-Dennis O'DriscollAuthor of Dear Life
