In a world in which poetry has often suffered either the ignominy of ossification through sheer pretentiousness or the mundane commercialism of navel-gazing triteness, the writings of Vinny Glynn-Steed appear like a breath of fresh air, as hinted at by the very title of this enthusiastic collection, the first, one hopes, of many.
VGS wields sinuous rhythms, unexpected images and elegant phrasing to deliver a satisfactory and thought-provoking read. Sometimes obscure, often allusive yet always engaging, VGS’ poems marry intellect and image to intimacy and emotive power in a way that is simultaneously – and paradoxically – both refined and raw.
Highly recommended as it is a rare thing to encounter a poet so obviously touched by the Muse.
