Long Pass by Joey Connolly
In his first collection Joey Connolly tries to say simple things, but to say them truthfully is complicated and the poems wittily, angrily, elegiacally run out of control. His is a complex, vigorous, and above all entertaining struggle.
'A North-of-England Cavafy' - David Wheatley, The Guardian; 'Long Pass, for its humour, strange voicings, playfulness, and ability to move the reader, should be celebrated' - New Welsh Review on Long Pass
Joey Connolly grew up in Sheffield, studied in Manchester and now works in London as the Director of Faber Academy. He received an Eric Gregory award in 2012, and his first collection, Long Pass, was published by Carcanet in 2017.
