Críticas

Back in 1993 Cross Rhythms reviewed Godfrey's Breaking The Chains book of poems and commented that "Britain has another wordsmith to put alongside the Steve Turners and Stuart Hendersons."; Now that book has been expanded so that alongside those witty, incisive, thought-provoking works we've got another batch to take us up to 2000. Their range is dazzling - an encounter with a cathedral official in Florence who demands Godfrey remove his straw hat so that "my balding head is cruelly exposed to His minute examination"; the passing of an elderly church saint; telly advertising pitched at kids; the Magi (one of four telling poems for Christmas); or a chilling fantasy of Judas calling room service. Here is a poet with the cultural savy to lambast the absurdities of our culture yet the maturity to espy the Father in the minutiae of all our lives. --Tony Cummings, Cross Rhythms Magazine
