‘these little books are essential pocket-fillers for any distraction-seeking daydreaming traveller.’  Jessica Ablitt Sudbury, Time Out

‘Having just stumbled upon a new volume called Dublin: Poetry of Place … I need to return to the idea of using poetry as a travel guide ... All of us owe it to our city to slip a copy of this slim volume into the backpack of the next visitor we send wandering the streets of our nation’s capital.’  Manchan Magan, The Irish Times

‘perfect stocking fillers.’  Michael Kerr, The Daily Telegraph
