Alain C. Dexter

Decent book but with limited appeal. I would only recommend this book if one has a love of poetry and/or familiarity with the authors contained within. Nevertheless, the author does have a lovely way with words.

This collection did not do anything for me. I found that when I put it down, I really didn't care if I went back to it or not. This was just so far from the things that I normally read, I hate to try to say whether it was nooks or bad.

This is an odd fish. At the end of the text I was neither moved nor engaged. Technically clever but none of the glosas moved me. I failed to see the point unless the references to Pessoa were meant to suck me into reading another of the heteronymic books to try and track down the position of these poems on a larger gloss.

Unable to write a review since I never received the book despite numerous inquiries after having "won" it as part of the early reviewer programme of the library thing website.
