"Portrait of Anna Dali is one of the best British poems of recent times – a masterpiece."
Les Murray
"I was delighted with Eddie’s poems. The changes from sad to happy, from downbeat to zappy, all one enriching tapestry."
John Hegley
"What a book. It’s like fast-forwarding table tennis match between a stand-up comic and a psycho-therapist. Or like Roger McGough on a bleak Sunday in 1965 unburdening to Pam Ayres."
