In these poems the personal and global darknesses are always lit by Kevin Higgins's singular wit. There is lyricism, and acute vulnerability, here. But if you want reassuring, middle class epiphanies then you should immediately put this poetry collection down and run screaming from the bookshop. There is a hard-fought for subversive hope in several of these poems. And where that hope fails there is a maniacal laughter which is sometimes the only answer. Ecstatic is Kevin Higgins's sixth full collection of poems. Praise for Kevin Higgins's previous poetry collection: "Nothing is ever seen the same way again if you truly engage with a Higgins poem." - Dublin Review of Books. "Some great stuff here. It's the Dave McSavage of poetry books. The Michel Houllebecq. Sergio Ramos (crossed with Ronaldo)." - Kevin Gildea, Founder of Dublin's Comedy Cellar. "Expelled [from the British Labour Party] for having his poem printed in a socialist newspaper. Banning and persecution is something Irish writers have a lot of experience of. Kevin follows in the footsteps of O'Casey, Shaw, O'Brien, Joyce, Behan and so many others." - Pamela Fitzpatrick, UK Labour Parliamentary Candidate Harrow East Constituency 2019
