Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'Jeremy Reed's talent is almost extraterrestrial in its brilliance. He is Rimbaud reconfigured as the Man who fell to Earth, a visitor from deep space whose time machine was designed by Lautreamont and de Sade, and powered by the most exotic fuels the imagination has ever devised.' J.G. Ballard 'When Patti Smith meets Rimbaud at Graceland, the result is Jeremy Reed's Heartbreak Hotel'. Edmund White 'Reed's poetry is full of rich and careful writing, dense with pleasure in words that pleasure the world and waken us to its lovely surprises'. Seamus Heaney.

Reseña del editor:

"Piccadilly Bongo" finds Jeremy Reed, described by Pete Doherty as 'a legend', at his most imaginatively brilliant, writing about his particular London milieu, and most often Soho. The collection, fuelled by breathtaking imagery, is complemented by a CD of Soho Songs from the pop legend and Britain's leading torch singer Marc Almond, as a unique collaboration expressive of deeply-felt, evocative Piccadilly associations. The creative sympathies shared by the two artists is not only a first for poetry, but a powerfully original fusion of energies focused on the Piccadilly ethos of "Johnny Go Home".
