Patrick Chapman has one of the most distinctive and creative voices in Irish poetry today. This book contains 22 new poems and selected work from his five previous collections: Jazztown (1991), The New Pornography (1996), Breaking Hearts and Traffic Lights (2007), A Shopping Mall on Mars (2008) and The Darwin Vampires (2010).
Chapman''s work has always followed its own imaginative path – heartfelt yet adventurous, shocking yet moving – exploring themes of lost childhood innocence, fractured love, fear and mortality.
"One of the very best Irish poets born in the last 40 years... You avoid him at your cool-quotient peril."
Todd Swift
