Dirt (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781913642723)

Dominic Leonard's Dirt is a dark and windswept collection as mysterious as the mist hovering over a mountain. Leonard's deep interest in language shows in his fascination with pre-medieval poetry and drama, while his writing bears the fruit of the full bloodline of English literature, from Chaucer to Shakespeare, from Keats to T.S. Eliot. Essentially a romantic figure, Leonard is a young man with an old soul "Carving his mouth open....To get out all the slush, all the necessary dirt."
