Praise for Rachel Coventry's previous collection Afternoon Drinking in The Jolly Butchers
"Coventry doesn't romanticise-her portraits do not eschew brutality-but neither does she condemn. In her first collection at least, Coventry is closer to Baudelaire than she is to the aforementioned quality armchairs; the title poem brings to brilliant life the world of people most polite society considers 'wasters'." - Kevin Higgins, The Canadian Journal of Irish Studies.
"I adored this distilled and spiky work... Coventry has a striking ability to mine the achingly bleak for cracking lines." - Jaki McCarrick, Poetry Ireland Review.
