Reviews
- ‘Sheer brilliance of language carries its own zest in easy intimacy. Greenhalgh writes with all his senses alert.’
- Bill Turner, Poetry Review
- ‘Entertaining and bizarre... When Chris Greenhalgh gets it right, which he often does, he is very good indeed.’
- Nick Laird, Times Literary Supplement
- ‘Anecdotal in tone, yet linguistically sensuous.’
- Jane Holland, Poetry Review
