"A Word in Your Fear introduces me to a new voice, epiphanies striking, stun and collide, in sparks, language, thick. But without clutter. Doyle's poetry is funny, philosophical, sometimes satirical. It professes an awareness on manifold levels: surreal in some places, grounded in others. It's a magical book, a demanding book: a decision to filter experience and somehow embrace. The challenge? To pull from the wreckage & desperation of a struggling world an "who gives a damn" construct, the engagement a child has kicking a ball amidst graffiti stained walls and rubble.

"A Word in Your Fear introduces me to a new voice, epiphanies striking, stun and collide, in sparks, language, thick. But without clutter. Doyle's poetry is funny, philosophical, sometimes satirical. It professes an awareness on manifold levels: surreal in some places, grounded in others. It's a magical book, a demanding book: a decision to filter experience and somehow embrace. The challenge? To pull from the wreckage & desperation of a struggling world an "who gives a damn" construct, the engagement a child has kicking a ball amidst graffiti stained walls and rubble. Echoing ancestors of Celtic voice, fresh, I hearmuch of what poetry needs to continue amongst what still reverberates, not the undead zombie, but the awake and alive. A word in our fear. How to dance and in dancing outrage the world as it stares, amazed." -C. Leigh Srygley, Author of Parking Lot Poems (Luchador Press) "A Word in Your Fear by John Doyle is a stunning collection of poetry by one of Ireland's leading contemporary poets. These poems, reflect the poet's experience of life and society in America and Ireland. They are sublime observations in real time that look back and still "stiff" us today. Like Kerouac, Doyle narrates his own road of adventure and discovery. His poetic prose draws the reader into each poem on his epic journey. This brilliant collection highlights a unique style, vision and sophisticated technique. The serious undertones are truths made more memorable by hilarious humour and scathing satire in beautiful prose that brings to mind Joseph Heller and Kurt Vonnegut." -Strider Marcus Jones, Author of "Inside Out" ¿"John Doyle remakes the world we see with its parameters, received wisdom, and brutal expectations into a world of ancient, shared archetypes, and not so ancient archetypes like Dennis Wilson surfing around Roger Christian poetry like the new Odysseus. The muse sings out from Irish freight trains going by, and the Jim Rockford coastline where California meets the Irish Sea." -John Harold Olson, Author of "FDR and The Flying Saucers"
