'Mesmerising, magical, deeply moving. I loved and adored this book!
If you are looking for a read that will warm your heart, inspire
your creative mind and renew your faith in the resilience of the
human race, look no further' - ELIF SHAFAK
'A poem to Padraig is like a child to Mary Poppins. It sits, alert,
in wonder that he should know it so well. I would go out at night
to hear Padraig talk of the poems. The next best thing, maybe even
better, is Poetry Unbound . . . There should be a copy of Poetry
Unbound in every bar, every cafe, every train station, every bus
station, every airport, every workplace, every school, every
university, everywhere!' - LEMN SISSAY
'A wonderful anthology of poetry filled with fascinating and
thought-provoking commentary from one of the best voices in
contemporary poetry today' - WILLIAM SIEGHART
'Padraig O Tuama is a bearer of light. He has been called to bring
his illuminating insights into what some might consider encroaching
darkness, and we are all the fortunate beneficiaries of his
response. This collection of poems by fifty writers, with
accompanying essays by Padraig, is a testament to the rare fineness
of feeling and understanding that mark his brilliant work for the
On Being Project' - LORNA GOODISON
'The Poetry Unbound podcast, and Padraig's way of finding language
to describe the details and intricacies and the shades of grey of
the human experience, have made me a better person, a better
songwriter and a better artist. Padraig's perspectives have added
so much beauty, wonder and comfort to my life, and I would urge
everyone to dive into this deeply rewarding book' - CAMILA CABELLO
