Some reviews of Fizzbombs

REVIEWS

“Under the chatty vernacular is a lovely, casual sharpness, like an unexpected hot chilli in something sold as sweet.  There’s power and tenderness together here.” Cherry Smith Poetry Editor BRAND MAGAZINE

“I think that, despite being highly commended in the Forward Prize, poet Joe Duggan is at the moment under-rated. The poems in his book, Fizzbombs, are lyrical, haunting and witty.”
Saskia Sarginson in The IRISH TIMES

Stunning debut collection……… vibrant and memorable.”
Salena Godden NEW CAMDEN JOURNAL

“There’s a forgotten sector of society here that Duggan speaks directly to……As plain speaking and direct as
poetry gets” VERBAL MAGAZINE
