My review of Noisesome Ghosts:
This poetry collection is one of a kind. I’ve never read anything quite like it!
These poems are recreated by Clay in such a unique way and the formatting, while sometimes a tad confusing, really express the living human beings as well as the dead souls’ thoughts and fears.
An example of this is:
“Are you buried in the garden? No
Can you tell us where? In the well
Do you mean under the fir tree? In the cellar ”
This passage strikes me especially because of the communication between life and death and the ways ghosts want to go back to the land of the living.
Overall, I think that this poetry collection is fascinating and very well-written.
