Reviews

The poems are like Genet's red rose of monstrous size and beauty discovered in the heart of the executed murderer. Given the name of the press, one might note that these poems embody poiesis as the word is explicated in e.g. Heidegger's Introduction to Metaphysics, they do not thematize Being explicitly, but they disclose, they reveal the death camp logistics that has replaced the primitive Mitsein of the squaddy. Get this book; these poems need to be read.
- David McLean, author of Cadaver's Dance and Hellbound

Had Rilke made it to The Front Line he may very well have compiled a series of poems such as Craig Podmore offers us in his harrowing yet tender collection, Love Notes from a Soldier's Diary. Podmore is no stranger to the themes of love, death, war (he does not tackle the minor issues), and here we have the double spectres of death and absent love - the ones that hollow us out yet make us feel desperately alive - set against the agony and futility of war.
- Gillian Prew, author of Disconnections
