Terry McDonagh's new collection of poems for young and old is aworthy follow up to his widely successful Boxes. McDonagh writes with admirable simplicity and finds an almost fairytale-like quality in everyday happenings.The poet moves swiftly between experiences of troubled times but never fails to celebrate sweeter days. He writes ¿In a room full of children, a chinese whisper sets words on fire...' and it is these words that pull you into the stories the poet tells. McDonagh, like a truly international traveller, observes sharply and examines the complexity of the apparently banal and often shows his canny ability to be a merciless chronicler of misfortune and everyday tragedies and all this with a twinkle in his eye.
