A unique talent
John Banville
Dizzy and yet deliberate, devout but always streetwise, Aidan Mathews moves and startles us. These very clever, complicated poems challenge their own disenchantment and somehow maintain a religious sense of life
Michael Longley
The commingling here of the sacred and the secular lexicons produces a powerful medicine, a haunted music. Mathews bides his time well between incarnations. These are poems worth waiting for, worth remembering, worth learning by heart
Thomas Lynch
The most talented poet of his generation in Ireland
Sebastian Barry
