Drowning In The Desert

0 out of 5

€12.00

This is David Murphy’s debut collection of poetry. These poems are balanced by a strong sense of people and place, lit up by connections between them, emotional and political. A sureness of rhythm permeates. Ideas and speculations come naturally and the storytelling gifts used by the author in his short stories and novels are utilised. Ghosts of everyday universal emotions abound; important questions that plague us all are asked here.

“A secret regret…and a motif of the drowned and the unsaved threads through the book like a nagging guilt.  This collection is a journey that asks to be taken.”  – John W Sexton
