It is…the warmth in Longley’s writing that marks his poems out, makes them cherishable. Never forced, that affection is simply there.
Kate Kellaway, Observer
Longley’s 10th collection weaves his classical themes of war, family and flaura and fauna into measured songs of commemoration for those he has loved.
Paul McCartney, Sunday Times
A book of tiny, delicately lyrical commemorations and commendations.
Tablet
The Stairwell…is a stupendous collection of quiet beauty and universal significance.
Bel Mooney, Daily Mail
The book I have loved best, and have gone back to again and again.
Adam Nicolson, Evening Standard
The Stairwell is a book reckless in loving, to make the skin prickle and the eyes blur.
Peter Scupham, Literary Review
