Objects in the Review Mirror
Two reviews of The Land of Bad Dreams have recently seen the light.
According to Sheila M. Merritt, my "...dark visions have a striking note of whimsical levity: The overall tone is cloaked in Goth black leather, yet there is a gossamer element about it; an Edward Gorey sensibility, but with an edgy vibe." Her review was posted to Hellnotes on 4 November 2011.
Kenneth Faig Jnr. speaks of the "...glorious extended narrative... " of "The Feast of Mistrust" and engages in "...deep ponderings on what I shall call creatureliness." But also of my waspish figure. His review appeared in the newsletter of the Esoteric Order of Dagon (Amateur Press Association) and is reproduced in full by my publisher at the bottom of this page.
I confess to still experiencing a kind of wonder upon receiving proof that, not only do complete strangers read my poems (even the long ones) but they seem to rather enjoy them!
A tale of two kitties, indeed...
