This book was selected by Iain Sinclair to be one of his Christmas recommendations for 2007: "Nostalgia for Unknown Cities by the poet Ken Edwards (Reality Street) is the wild card: hypnagogic derangement as the urban dream dissolves before our eyes." More details here.

SONATA

 

It turns out Livelihood (Scully's previous Reality Street book Steps - see below - was part of that) was not the last word. This is the closing volume of the trilogy Things That Happen, written over the period 1983-2005, and follows on from Livelihood, which was the second part. One of the most engaging, adventurous and intelligent poets writing in Ireland today.
