Acclaim:‘ Carol Ann Duffy is the most humane and accessible poet of our time, and Rapture is essential reading for the broken-hearted of all ages’ – Rose Tremain
The BookViral Review:
When a poet has the longevity that Carol Ann Duffy has you might wonder when the well of inspiration will finally run dry. But if her poetry book release Rapture proves just one thing it’s that her creative spring is positively overflowing.
Unashamedly daring when compared to her earlier works age has not withered a keen intellect and the ability to write incredibly powerful poems. Some simply tripping of the tongue with lyrical merriment whilst others reach us on an altogether more primal level. This is the brilliance of Duffy and why she remains one of the most recognizable names in British poetry. In simple terms, she connects with her readers on a level that they can wholly identify with and remind us that Poetry is both timely and relevant. Allowing us to explore expression and emotions at points in our lives that are often overwhelming and confusing. This is certainly true of love and in Rapture Duffy has given us an intimate look at love with a beginning middle and end.
From stanzas to tone it is by any measure a classic and not only recommended without reservation but is given our very rare single star which is only awarded to Books of Extraordinary Distinction

Now his hands, his hands are moving. Flimsy lingerie removing. Breathless panting sighs are proving. That my body craves for more.
Now, his words, his words come sweetly. Silken tongue seducing neatly. Whispered promise followed meekly. Wondrously rich rapport.
With its relentless pace and clever plot, Zipline makes for an appealing and compelling read but it’s not a read to be rushed with it being the progress of Michael’s plot, not the process, which makes Zipline particularly intriguing.
In a mind-bending investigation into the nature of reality, Tom Arant invites his readers to dive headlong into the proverbial rabbit hole with arguments that are intellectually rigorous and worryingly convincing!
Fiction Authors and poets have always found ways of confronting cultural, religious and social issues especially those where……..
Moore appreciates the value of having fun with a plot, turning its clichés into fresh experiences and infusing energy into the margins of what might otherwise have been a predictable story and on this level, Explosive Forces works great as both unconventional crime thriller and offbeat romance.
