extracts from reviews.
Many of the titles in this book contain a reference to place. In Sneyd's poetry pre-Roman Celts and angry Luddites mingle with the industrial workers of today, and this historical but still personal perspective is one of his strongest attributes. He also shares with the old man in Slaughter Gap the ability to tell a compelling story Crooked Roads.
A chapbook with some ups and downs; Sneyd wavers between telling stories and constructing sounds. But when the two elements come together, as happens in about half the poems, the result is nice free verse balladeering. Roger-Kyle Keith Taproot reviews
