Poetry. "It has been a long wait for William Cirocco's first full-length book of poems, but well worth it. The slow maturation and building of a body of work here results in a varied yet coherent and finely realised poetry. Cirocco clearly cares nothing for literary fashion, just as he has cared nothing for a premature appearance of achievement, and it shows in the highly singular, intelligent and moving poems we now have before us"--David Miller.
