The Night we ate the Baby
About
These wilfully, calmly disagreeable poems have tenderness and courage at their heart. Both bleak and hilarious, they perturb so deeply that they comfort. The speaker of these poems is often trapped, but from inside his predicament he speaks freely. He scrutinises his subject-a film, a phrase, a loss, a terrible life-giving meal-with a razor-like eye, taking us down with him then giving us solace. I am both glad and fearful that I will never stop reading this book' --Ashleigh Young, 2014.
