casparb's review against another edition
RB's debut and nonetheless just as sharp as one may expect from her it's astonishing that it is a debut really she keeps the pace she keeps the bangers & while Cocteau is here less than one may be accustomed with her it's entirely recognisable and deft in developing very subtle motifs throughout. What more is to say than entirely worth the time -
contre_qui's review against another edition
reflective
3.0
I found some of the poems to be a little convoluted, and the collection as a whole wasn't especially emotionally moving for me. I liked the language, but it wasn't that special. Some of the poems feel like they're trying a little hard, but that's also a matter of personal taste. It's very British, but mostly because it references lots of British places. If you like astronomy-inspired poetry you might like this.
