5.0 out of 5 stars apparentexcellence, March 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: First Language: Poems (Paperback)
Ciaran Carson is a man driven mad by words. They bounce around his head, jig and reel until they feel the click of sound and then the meaning drunkingly meanders out. I have read all his work to date and I think that this book is a kind of plateau for him, after this book he shortens his line. For American readers comming to him for the first time, imagine C.K. Stead crossed with Baudelaire, drunk on powers whiskey, cursing the godhead Joyce.
