Moonrise

Finely held moods and moments resonate throughout this accomplished collection of poetry. Apocalyptic, post-industrial imagery blends with myth and classical motifs to echo thoroughly modern contexts with plot twists, clever inversions, and mysterious incantatory digressions. Also heavily influenced by popular science fiction, this engaging and musically deft compendium discusses the ironies of urban life, adolescence, and Welsh history and identity with frequent doses of satire.
