![]() ![]() ![]() These poems are slyly laced with humour and sexuality, beckoning you to wade into them, smiling. I was bowled over by the generosity of these poems, felt a physical response towards McCann’s poetics of longing, acceptance, and ultimately of safety in Keeper’s act of both individual humanity and togetherness. Mícheál McCann writes some of the most beautiful imagery I have come across in poetry. Seán Hewitt, author of Tongues of Fire and All Down Darkness Wide Mícheál McCann is a poet of wise, exalting attention: his is a fresh and refreshing new voice in queer poetry. Each poem sparkles on the flood of time, blissing in sudden spiritual moments, worked with a playful vision of beauty. The poems in Keeper are by turns sunlit and rain-drenched, tender and elemental, bracing and embracing. ![]()
