Midnight's Revolution - R J Dillon - Bog

Exceptionally poignant, brilliantly observed, Midnight's Revolution reveals a vibrant emotional power in a collection of poetry that unpicks a myriad of emotions - love, death, tragedy.Spanning twenty-three years, the collection vividly dissects intimate personal loss, the gradual decay of love, betrayal and painful spiral of emotional turmoil. With his sharp, jaundiced novelist's insight, R. J. Dillon has bared, what at times, appears to be a very bitter view of life. Unlike his novels and non-fiction work, Midnight's Revolution offers little room to hide behind characters or historical facts and interpretation. Raw, genuine and sometimes too honest, the collection offers numerous voices an opportunity to probe and tease out meaning from the absurdity of modern life.
