    In the beautifully wrought book, Circling Out, we find Martin Galvin's poems immediately steeped in his Irish Catholic heritage. One is reminded of that country and its legacy as in the work of Seamus Heaney or Eavan Boland. We enter a strong sense of place, yet Galvin holds his own in originality, simile, metaphor, language, and idea. Still, it is a comfort and a blessing (as the Irish might say) to hear a voice from the rich landscape of a country with such strong and ancient tradition of poetry, this Celtic land of Atlantic Europe.

Great Book!

kimberlyhue from Cincinnati, OH, Oct 27, 2007

This is a fantastic chapbook of poems. I found the writing to be insightful and rich. The book itself is very beautifully made, and the poems are excellent. I think this is a great book for anyone of Irish/Celtic heritage, or is interested in Celtic/Irish culture.
