M.T. KELLY
These are graceful poems of grace, grit, and determination, poems of the city, poems of the countryside. They not only have their own Kelly music, but that rarest of qualities - a music between the lines.
Kelly’s prose memoir and his short story not only have the authentic feel for childhood and all its arbitrary shaping family forces, but a true feeling for the neighbourhoods in which he was born and raised.
“He gives much of cruelty and violation a compelling force.”
Canadian Book Review Annual
“Kelly’s passion brings him close to love.”
