Arts Editor of The Galway Advertiser

All Welcome.
In this potentially controversial publication, poet Kevin Higgins goes into detail about the often fraught relationship between literature and radical left-wing politics. He critiques Martin Amis, George Orwell, Che Guevara, Christopher Hitchens, Mao Tse-tung, Ruairi Quinn and many more. In the title essay he talks about poetry and the war in Iraq.
“In Kevin Higgins, the reviewer, a poetic sensibility is combined with a lucid, intellectual grasp of a book’s subject matter. First-rate analysis is delivered in prose that captures and holds the reader’s attention”
– Olga Stein, Editor, Books in Canada: The Canadian Review of Books
“Refreshingly iconoclastic, Kevin Higgins’ criticism takes a look at several sacred cows, from real politics to unreal poetry, and much in between.”
- Richard Montgomery
