Ahren Warner

'Warner's poems, by turns funny and disconcerting and patently accomplished, set out their individual programme as originally as in any debut collection for some time. As with the first books of Thom Gunn, Ted Hughes or Craig Raine, it is immediately clear that something different is going on.' The Sunday Times

'... pizzazz, wit and - astonishing at his age - both technical assurance and a genuinely integrated humanity.' The Independent

'Witty as well as erudite... Warner rows his own coracle, with his own deft motion.' Poetry Review
