Praise for Anthony Cronin:
“Cronin is a major voice; he is Ireland’s modern-day Dryden, a master of the public word in the public place.”
“Anthony Cronin’s The Fall has marvellous poems in it which are formally perfect, wise, surprising, filled with dark knowledge and animated by a glittering mind.”
“He wouldn’t want to be considered a ‘national poet’... but in a certain way he is, albeit a contrarian one. The comparison ... might be with Pablo Neruda, who also saw poetry and politics as part of the same activity.”
