No Customer Reviews
Jeremy Reed's first novel is a powerfully evocative and beautifully written book that takes one on a young man's journey to the bottom of the night. It is also, as Kathleen Raine has noted in her introduction, the novel of a poet, full of imaginative compassion for the night lost and a testament to poetic conviction, the word that is delivered from darkness. Jeremy Reed's range and originality as a poet and novelist have been acclaimed by many reviewers, including J.G. Ballard, Seamus Heaney and David Lodge. He has published many volumes of poetry, as well as a Selected Poems (Penguin), and he has received the Eric Gregory and Somerset Maugham Awards. He has translated Montale, Novalis and Cocteau, and written critical studies of Rimbaud, de Sade and Lautramont. Reed is also a noted writer on pop culture.
